Chocolate toxicity can take from four to 24 hours to show symptoms. Without knowing the type of chocolate in the cupcake, I can't say for certain if she will be ok or not. If it was made with cocoa, I would be extremely concerned as it is the most toxic type of chocolate. Because I don't know the type of chocolate in the cupcake, the best thing to do is to take Maggy into a vet immediately for decontamination procedures to prevent chocolate toxicity from occurring.
