Bakery, made famous in HBO's long-running TV series "Sex and the City,"
on Monday held a grand opening for its newest location in Dubai, its
first store outside the United States.

Through an exclusive territorial license agreement, the new bakery, located in the Bloomingdale's
home store within the Dubai Mall, will be managed and operated by Al
Tayer Insignia, the luxury retail company of Al Tayer Group.

Featuring their signature vintage design, the new Magnolia Bakery in Dubai
will be more than 885 square feet in size and will offer the same freshly
baked, old-fashioned desserts that have made it a beloved New York City
institution since first opening in 1996. Items on the
new location's menu will include Magnolia's iconic buttercream-frosted cupcakes,
red velvet cake, banana pudding and a variety of brownies, bars and
cookies.

The Dubai location marks the fourth Magnolia Bakery to date, preceding soon-to-open locations in Manhattan's Grand Central Terminal in late February 2010 and in Los Angeles in April 2010.
