Magnolia Bakery, one of America’s renowned bakeshops, recently announced that its Banana Pudding will now be available on select United flights nationwide. The bakery’s Banana Pudding Wafer Cookie Bits will be served in United First Class on flights longer than 901 miles. This treat will be offered in individual 3-ounce cups and is made with real bananas, whipped to perfection, inspired by Magnolia Bakery’s World-Famous Banana Pudding.

This marks the first time Magnolia Bakery desserts have been served onboard a commercial airline, thanks to the launch of their frozen-to-thaw Banana Puddings. This new line allows passengers to enjoy the fresh taste of bakery treats anytime, anywhere—including at 30,000 feet.

“We’re changing how travellers eat and drink onboard, offering more variety and elevated options with partners like Magnolia.”

This is the first stop many have made to bring Magnolia Bakery to new places in new ways,” said Eddie Revis, Chief Commercial Officer, Magnolia Bakery.

This collaboration represents the next phase of Magnolia Bakery's goal to evolve from being a "New York treat" to an "anywhere eat."
