Magnolia Bakery’s Banana Pudding Takes To The Skies With United

Attention, dessert lovers and frequent flyers! Magnolia Bakery, the legendary bakeshop famous for its irresistible Banana Pudding, has joined forces with United Airlines to make your travels sweeter than ever. Starting now, United First passengers on flights more than 901 miles can savor Magnolia Bakery’s Banana Pudding Wafer Cookie Bits at 30,000 feet.

A Taste of Magnolia in the Clouds

Served in individual 3-ounce cups, Magnolia Bakery’s Banana Pudding is a masterpiece of real bananas, silky whipped goodness, and a generous dose of nostalgia. It’s the first time this beloved dessert has been offered onboard a commercial airline—a game-changer for foodies who crave luxury even in the air.

“The only thing more iconic than Magnolia Bakery’s Banana Pudding is enjoying that pudding at 30,000 feet in United First – we know our customers are going to love it. We’re changing the way travelers eat and drink onboard, offering more variety and more elevated options with partners like Magnolia” said United’s Managing Director of Hospitality, Aaron McMillan.

Three Years in the Making

This isn’t just any pudding; it’s the result of a three-year effort by Magnolia Bakery’s team to create a frozen-to-thaw version of their iconic treat. The goal? To make sure every bite tastes as fresh and indulgent as it does in their flagship New York store.

Bobbie Lloyd, CEO and Chief Baking Officer of Magnolia Bakery, shares her passion for this groundbreaking collaboration: “As an avid traveler and baker, I know what an important role food can play in your travels, which is why I’m so excited to bring this new, innovative product to thousands of adventurers each year. This is a first-of-its-kind collaboration for Magnolia Bakery, and we could not be more thrilled to be working with United.”

Bringing Banana Pudding to New Heights

Magnolia Bakery isn’t stopping here. This partnership with United Airlines is just one step in their mission to take their desserts from a “New York treat to an anywhere eat.” From a new location in LaGuardia Airport to exclusive collaborations with DoorDash and innovative pop-ups, the iconic bakery is on a roll.

Eddie Revis, Magnolia Bakery’s Chief Commercial Officer, sums it up perfectly: “Today’s announcement marks one of our most exciting product launches to date — bringing banana pudding to new heights onboard United. This is the first stop of many to bring Magnolia Bakery to new places in new ways.”

The Sweetest Travel Upgrade

If you’re planning on flying United First soon, get ready for a dessert experience like no other. Magnolia Bakery’s Banana Pudding Wafer Cookie Bits is about to make air travel a whole lot sweeter.. literally!

I think it’s great to see airlines stepping it up with their food offerings. Just last month, Delta Airlines announced that they were serving up Shake Shack, and now United (who already has great food) has this partnership with Magnolia. Your turn, American Airlines..
