Beware of hipsters. It is NYC, after all. Delicious cupcakes. Good after a meal at the German restaurant next door. (You may need to do what we did and walk off dinner first...)

We had their seasonal pie, pumpkin pie. Delicious! I’ve heard their cakes and cupcakes are awesome!
AhmedMarch 9, 2014
Really moist and creamy and sweetness is perfect! Wide range of flavours to choose from, surely there's always something to suffice your taste buds :)

What a cute little shop! Their cheesecakes and their cupcakes are amazing. Stop by if you're in the UES, but watch out for long lines during the busier hours.
Keri ThompsonAugust 22, 2015
Everything here is made with love and delivered with a smile. Carrot or Banana Cake with Cream Cheese Icing are both amazeballs!
EMILYAugust 7, 2015
Their chocolate cake cupcakes are the best, with great frosting. Cheesecake is good too. However, the red velvet is subpar (go to sprinkles instead).
Brittany BeisnerMay 20, 2019
Custom ordered a cake for my friends bday and it was perfect! The red velvet is AMAZING and the customer service was fab.

cupcakes are better than the cakes... chocolate lovers, get the pudding-filled cupcake

if you like chocolate, there's no possible way you won't love the Brooklyn blackout cupcake
IreneAugust 16, 2015
Their Brooklyn Blackout cupcakes are super filling and delicious. Probably one of the softest cupcakes I've ever had.

Best place to go to when you want that old grandma's kitchen smell plus its kinda that secret place thats not overcrowded so its cozy.

Huge cupcakes (but they also have smaller versions). The peanut butter one is heavy, greasy — and yet delicious.

I trek from Bushwick to get cakes and confections from this place. Brooklyn Blackout may be their signature cake, but I adore the red velvet!

They are properly rated - believe the hype as the lines before every holiday are for good reason. Pies, cakes, cup cakes they knock it out of the park routinely.

The Brooklyn Blackout cupcake is the perfect mix of chocolate cake, pudding, and icing. Pretty much divine.

The best red velvet cake in all the land.. Two Little Red Hens sets the bar extremely high! Hands down best bakery in the UES..

Hands down the best cheesecake and cupcakes in the city. Well worth the trek uptown.

Amazing red velvet and brooklyn blackout cupcakes. Hands down the best cupcake in New York!

The Brooklyn Blackout Cupcake and the Cheesecake taste really good!

A hidden gem! Scrumptious cupcakes with a uniqueness to each one that you just gotta try them all!

Brooklyn blackout is 'the ultimate treat' and Two Little Red Hens is 'the place'. All your other Brooklyn what-if's don't stand a chance.
PierreApril 16, 2017
Cakes! Banana cake, carrot cake, apple pie. This is the best cake place in the world.
Elizabeth BursteinDecember 18, 2018
Brooklyn blackout is the best! Marble is good but prefer the bb. Coconut not so good
NearSay NYCJuly 28, 2011

The cheesecake here is our favorite in New York, perfect in both aesthetics and taste.
RaqApril 20, 2013
The key lime is to die for! Do yourself a favor and just get the big cupcake bc you're def going to want more than the mini!
Brittany GoodwynJuly 29, 2015
Very cute little bakery. The cupcakes are a good size, but unfortunately the key lime cupcake wasn't that great. It didn't have enough flavor for my extreme love of key lime.
Cindy OlJuly 28, 2019
Fantastic place - try the carrot cake! Hard to pick a favorite cake.
Michelle ChenOctober 29, 2016
Great red velvet cupcakes (love the cream cheese frosting), also had the pumpkin harvest which was good!
Mirjana V.March 30, 2014
Well worth the trip uptown. Amazing (and affordable) decorated cakes, and the best cupcakes around.
Elvis RodricksMarch 16, 2015
They do run out of their cupcakes towards the end of the day. We resorted to their pecan pie - drove us nuts in a good way!
Serious EatsAugust 10, 2013
Excellent American-style bakery for pie, birthday cake, and moist, flavorful cupcakes.
Syndicate Media GroupJanuary 30, 2012
NYC [Eat] The banana cupcakes with cream cheese are the best of their kind. Moist and flavorful with just the right amount of decadence. Grab one or two.
Toni JolyMay 4, 2019
The cheesecake was the best I’ve ever had in my life
{ Ella Bordeaux }November 1, 2014
Everything's so delicious and tasteful, gotta try it all before I come back to Italy! Supreme!
Stella KimDecember 16, 2010
The Brooklyn blackout is Absolutely Perfect! Everyone should eat this. Other than that, you really can't go wrong! I just had a Ginger cupcake and even that was delicious.
Kimmie OhhSeptember 29, 2019
You must definitely order the New York cheesecake, Brooklyn blackout & red velvet!

You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu here. Try the yellow cake with fudge frosting!
Josh MinznerNovember 7, 2017
The peanut butter fudge cupcake may be the best peanut butter flavored dessert I’ve had in my life.
Divya MenonAugust 21, 2016
This is my favorite place to buy a chocolate birthday cake ❤️. The BLACKOUT is Amazzzzing!
VeraSeptember 10, 2018
The cheesecake is to die for: very smooth, soft, creamy, rich in flavor
Elizabeth BursteinJanuary 6, 2018
Loved the key lime and pecan pies. Snickerdoodle cookie was meh. Want to try the raspberry cake
Angela ZhangAugust 27, 2014
The Brooklyn Blackout cupcake tastes like boxed devil's cake + average chocolate pudding + grocery store fudge icing. All that just for the hefty price of $4!
Mike FriedlichOctober 9, 2018
Brooklyn Blackout cupcakes are excellent, probably the best cupcakes I’ve ever had.
Rock RainesJune 2, 2019
Ridiculously good cheesecake and the peanut butter and chocolate cupcake is incredible
NeetOctober 23, 2012
This is the best in the city!! Magnolia is over rated and doesn't taste half as delicious as these amazing cupcakes! Yum!!!!!
