Baked By Melissa




Baked by Melissa is a small window cupcake shop with a couple of locations around New York. A couple of interns and myself were walking around Soho looking for a bread shop and we came across it. There was a short line out front and it seemed like a cute and popular place. The cupcakes are about the size of a half dollar and crazy enough cost 1.50 or so each. What made them even better was that they were stuffed cupcakes, like stuffed with cookie dough, peanut butter and more. I bought 12 of them and paid 15 dollars. I wanted to try them all! There was only one repeat flavor in the box of 12. They were really tiny, bite size cupcakes, but I split them with Neil, that way we were able to taste every one of them. Unfortunately they tasted like they were made from a mix, but they were still pretty good. The buttercream, I cannot remember if it was American or Italian, was good, not too sweet, and the stuffing's were even better! I would have to say that they deserve a 6.25 because they did taste like mix, the service was okay, and they were soooo overpriced for their size. An overall fun eating experience, but it should have cost $6 for 12.
