MischaDecember 19, 2014Was looking for a place to please the nephews, and not just they enjoyed the cupcakes , but I loved them as well. Get the hummingbird which is banana, I've read that red velvet is the best.- Halstead PropertyJuly 11, 2013We cannot stop eating the best banana pudding ever to be made! The rich and thick pudding mixed with fresh banana bites and crushed vanilla wafers gives that creamy yet crunchy cookie feel all in one.
Jade JenningsFebruary 25, 2016I don't even like bananas but their banana pudding was soo good! The other tips were absolutely accurate!!
Hidden gem of midtown. If you love buttercream frosting, incredible banana pudding and cupcakes in every variation (ube, anyone?) go here!
Townley GirlAugust 3, 2011When we need a sweet fix, we head to Buttercup Bakery. Soft, moist cakes tooped with sweet, fluffy frosting. While we stick with the delicious Red Velvet cupcake, sometime we go with the classic Vanil
Cody GriggersApril 28, 2017Cupcakes, sure, but the puddings are where it's at. Ask for (generous!) free samples!
Becky BlossomAugust 17, 2011I think this one is better than Magnolia Bakery at Rockefeller Center. Just my personal fav. Get a slice of cake- the hummingbird is out of this world.
Harumi USeptember 28, 2014Their banana pudding is probably the most banana-y pudding there is in the city and I tried many if not all.
Best red velvet cake in NYC. The banana pudding also rivals Magnolia and Sugar Sweet Sunshine
Liza RamsammyMay 15, 2011My favorite cupcakes in the city ... Can't go wrong with the original vanilla on vanilla or red velvet. The banana pudding is to die for also!
Ashley HerronMay 15, 2011Red velvet and the lemon cupcakes are amazzzzzzing but you can't go wrong with the classic vanilla cake and chocolate icing cupcake.
David BerkowitzOctober 17, 2011Skip the cupcakes and try the peanut butter cheesecake, which is about as dense and sweet a foodstuff as you can find anywhere.
✨Pun Bandhu ✨January 25, 2013Way too much icing for my taste. Cupcakes are fluffy, but I prefer mine moister and denser. Of course, sugar is sugar. U can't really complain, favors are nice and intense. Service is friendly.
Polina WeitzDecember 27, 2019The place is cute, and the variety is huge. The cupcakes were just ok (the frosting was not my favorite), and overall they aren't as good as in Sprinkles.- Tash ConcepcionAugust 17, 2014The Buttercup Golden and Red Velvet cupcakes are excellent. And the Buttercup's Famous Banana Pudding is a must try.
- Gal RozovMarch 27, 2012Try the Raspberry Marzipan Cheesecake - The best and only good marzipan cake I ever tried
Everything is beyond divine here! A must visit when in NYC for me!
New York HabitatDecember 2, 2011Get the banana pudding and some red velvet cupcakes. Eat it all in one sitting, rinse, repeat.
Steph LMarch 25, 2013Eat the chocolate pudding and all your problems will disappear. It's that good!!!
OMG try the choc pudding ( choc trifle) choc pudding, choc cake and whipped cream in layers.... Pure comfort food!
Jany XuMarch 10, 2013The cake is mediocre but the buttercream frosting is the best frosting I've ever had. Seriously.
Cupcakes (vanilla/vanilla frosting; vanilla/chocolate frosting; red velvet) & brownies are out of this world!
Savannah PetrickApril 1, 2016don't come here for coffee but definitely get the coconut cake, even though it's pretty expensive.
Rumana SiddikyMarch 6, 2013Not that I needed confirmation but just reaffirmed that their red velvet really is the best in town
Christina RapestoDecember 13, 2010red velvet cupcake is out of this world. if u like sweet. u will b in heaven :)
Sheila HsuDecember 8, 2011The strawberry rhubarb pie is sooooo good! It's the kind of pie that makes my day sweeter and better.
- Tash ConcepcionMarch 20, 2016Avoid purchasing cupcakes at the end of the day. We purchased cupcakes after 9pm and they were stale.
- @sloaneDecember 18, 2010Buttercup golden with chocolate icing is oh-yeah-so-good. Hat tip: cup of milk for $.95.
