This Birthday Cake Milkshake Is Roughly The Size Of A Human Baby

[yuiyoshida]

If you’ve seen NYC restaurant Black Tap’s extreme milkshakes, then you know that you can just put anything in a milkshake and no can stop you.

The rules of milkshakes and physics no longer exist.

This summer Black Tap and Magnolia Bakery created a special milkshake for Magnolia’s 20th birthday.



It’s a vanilla milkshake with a frosted rim, sprinkles, a skewer of mini cupcakes, and a whoopee pie.

I’ve never felt comfortable using the term “whoopie pie” but that’s what it’s called.
I think sugar is pretty good so I went to try it. I’ve seen these intense milkshakes before—and while I love dessert more than anyone—they always seemed like a little bit of a logistical nightmare.

1. I love sweets, esp. chocolate; and I love milkshakes. However, I will pass on both those, especially

the first one. Maybe I am a purist, but they don't even tempt me.

[yuiyoshida]

3. Did you see the others?

Lots to choose from!

[merrily]

4. Not for me, thanks. Guess I am a purist. I'll take a standard chocolate shake, please.

A side of really great fries, if I am really starving at the moment, is about as complicated as I want my shake.

5. eat something Merrily

if you are hungry!

2. ice cream, vanilla syrup, and milk, into the whirly thing until a straw stands up in it....

I'm done. Milkshake minimalist.

[Warpy]

6. Maybe share one with about 50 people.

15. +1

I might like a taste but that's way, way, way too much.

[Islandurp]

7. I couldn't eat it all but I'm willing to try.

[yuiyoshida]

8. You would have to change your name

to IslandBurp... ya know that right?

[Liberal_in_LA]

9. Too much

[yuiyoshida]

11. awww ya know you want one...

go on! Take a bite!

10. Looks like an entry at Cake Wrecks.com

Ew

12. i would try it , but based on experience i have found that quality matters more

there are places which focus on looks and being extravagant but it's nothing special when you try it.

and there are places where something looks like just plain ice cream but the quality is really good so would be willing to pay m ore for it than the fancy looking but not so special thing.

it's like this Crumbs cupcakes place which had cupcakes that looked really fun and good but did not really taste that good at all. that is what the pics in the OP reminded me of.

13. They do look impressive ...

... but would be a really big mess to eat.

Then again, I prefer floats to milkshakes anyway.

14. For a change, I'm glad to be

lactose intolerant. I would never recover from one of these.

16. If it looks good, eat it! -- Andrew Zimmern nt

17. I would share the chocolate one with my grandkids.

My friends and I go out to dinner and at the end of the meal order one dessert and four spoons. Even then, often it doesn't all get eaten. One, two bites is perfect.

[dembotoz]

18. size of a baby....don't tell pence he will try to have it registered

but in all honesty...with that much lactose i would be using more tp than i can afford

[Ilsa]

19. There's too much going on for my taste buds.

For example, I prefer my cheesecake either plain or with only cherry or blueberry or strawberry compote, not chocolate, and or caramel, or crushed candy, etc. I like the balancing of rich with fruity.

And there are parts of the whole I don't like, like milk duds, soggy cake or donuts, etc.

But the first one is very, very pretty.
