Everyone knows about Magnolia now (ever since the rap song came out about it!). Still though, it's worth noting that their cupcakes are INCREDIBLE. They're really, really buttery (so watch out if you're watching calories), and they don't last at all if you put them in the fridge (imagine solid crisco), but if you get them freshly baked they melt in your mouth and taste fantastic. The place itself is also a fun experience: lines out the door, and a 'soup nazi' kind of production system (you only get what they've made - no custom orders (as far as I can tell)).. Waiting on line though, isn't a problem. The smell of the place is just delightful :)
