    Cupcake
    Rebecca K.

    I love this concept! Bite-sized cupcakes. After all, cupcakes can be messy. They come as few as a six pack and quantities increase. You can eat the cupcake in one bite! I sampled a chocolate one. Very rich and the icing was good. A guilt-free way to enjoy a sweet treat!

    Baked by Melissa treats are great for on the go. This is a great location at 2325 Broadway Upper West Side near places I visit. When I don't want to ruin my lunch I stop in here for one or two. I'm posting some of my favorite treats. I don't splurge with these very often. The owner/creator developed a one of a kind sweet. I hope she is successful keeping her numerous locations open. They do fit in with the take out trend. You can order on line and have them shipped too! That's my favorite way to purchase Baked by Melissa as gifts for my out of state friends! If you visit this location the employees are nice and knowledgeable. I've never had a problem with customer service if I get here early.

    Oh My Gluten Free Cupcakes (pack of 25)
    Cheryl P.

    I've seen these cupcakes around for what feels like forever and finally picked up a 25-pack ($46) for a recent special occasion:) The gluten-free version contains 6 flavors: birthday cake, caramel, cinnamon, tie-dye, red velvet, and triple chocolate. My favorites were probably the caramel and triple chocolate, which both had really tasty stuffing inside and the chocolate quinoa brittle had the perfect crunch. They're definitely bite-sized treats that are on the pricier end but my family definitely enjoyed how whimsical and cute these cupcakes were! The location on the UWS is pretty small but very clean and service was so friendly. I was able to order online and choose same-day pick-up, which was convenient. My only wish is that hopefully they can introduce a few more unique flavors in the gf pack once in a while :')

    I tried their mini cupcakes and honestly felt like it was wayyy too overpriced and definitely not worth the hype. The cupcakes are so tiny you can barely even taste the flavors in that one tiny bite. The cupcakes got really dry after being in the fridge for one night. The guy working there was super nice however and very helpful as well. It was my first time trying Baked by Melissa since I had been recommended to try it by many of my friends. I wasn't a fan of it.

    Stepped in for a quick Friday treat and the sales associate was very friendly and knowledge of all the cupcakes. They had so many flavors and I was unsure of what I wanted but she was patient and gave great descriptions of each one I inquired about. I ended up getting a cookies and cream, a rainbow, a red velvet, a purple kind that had a cookies and creme filling, a double chocolate fudge kind, and another flavor that I can't remember. They were all really good, very small and good for 1-2 bites, but you know this when you come to Melissa's. I saw they have ice cream by the pint and I wish they would start selling it by the scoop

    Mini cupcakes won't make you heavy :D

    While when I was in NYC 3 years ago, I tried the Carrie cupcake in Bleecker street, the famous Mongolia. This time I am impressed by the innovation done by Melissa. They halved the size of normal cupcakes. And the rate categories are rather reasonable: 3 in box for one person, or a 6 bigger box for two share. We always thought cupcakes are sugary mountain, somehow Melissa is changing that. At least I am not guilty for finishing 3 of them by myself!

    I was tired after a long day out and about, my feet hurt from walking, I was dehydrated and feeling a bit sluggish, needed a pick me up and BAM...saw "Baked by Melissa." My spirits rose quickly. When you walk in, you're greeted by the most upbeat chick. What I love about the space and concept is that it's clean. All white, with just the mini cupcakes on display. Makes sense, you want the center piece to be the product. The owner used to work in advertising so I'm glad some of her aesthetics transferred over. That's why places like this and froyo places do really well. Because everyone loves to eat in white spaces. There's a refreshing quality to a space that feels open, new and bright. As I've mentioned before, I'm not a huge cupcake girl, but I do love mini-things. Mini cokes, mini pencils, mini anything. The size of each cupcake, no joke, about the size of a quarter. So, you can just pop one in on the go. I bought 3 cupcakes for $3. Okay, the price is exorbitant, but for the novelty and the flavor options, it's worth it. You have to try it! I got 1) S'mores, 1) tie-dye vanilla and 1) orange creme. I killed all three cupcakes by the time I walked out of the store and got to the next block. Cheers!

    Perfect sized cupcakes

    if you are craving something sweet, check out this cute cupcake shop. They have bite sized cupcakes for sale. I love just having one-two bites of sweets and be done, so this is perfect for just that. All the flavors were awesome, and I had no complaints about them. I loved the way the tie-dye looked, but the taste was nothing special. Red velvet is always my favorite, perfectly moist with the tastiest cream cheese frosting on top. Chocolate chip pancake, actually did taste just as it sounds, that would probably be my favorite. I just checked their website, and they have chocolate dipped cupcakes now....My does that sound good. I need to go back to NYC and try one of those mini cupcakes again!

    Forgot to take a pic before I ate one -_-

    Wow, this little shop is unassuming, it definitely catches the eye, especially for someone like me…read morewho loves Asian pastries. I've never tried a Japanese cheesecake before and was extremely excited to be able to pick up some treats for my coworkers as well as my partner's birthday cake from Keki. Ordering is fairly straightforward and done with a simple machine outfront. Once your order is ready one of the staff members hands it to you through a window; there is no inside area accessible to customers but our food came quickly and we took it back to the office. The cheesecake was fantastic. I read a bit about the background of the shop online and how the owner really cares about using high-quality ingredients, specifically dairy. It was justas described, light and bouncy. I enjoyed how it was not overly sweet and found that it was all too easy to devour the entire cake over the course of two days. Despite it not having much weight to it, it traveled surprisingly well as I took it home on my three train commute! Similar to what others have said, the real highlight of the shop, in my opinion, are their cream puffs. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but the outer layer was thin yet had a nice little crunch to it. We tried the classic milk, cookies & cream pistachio and ube flavors. Our favorite was the pistachio by far, which had such a unique yet decadent flavor and our second favorite was the milk cream puff. There's not much else I can say other than you really have to go here and try the desserts yourself. If you're a fan of Japanese desserts that are rich yet not too sweet, you'll be a fan of Keki.

    Just got some tarts here so my review isn't reflecting what they're known for or typically have. I…read moreliked these ok because it was creamy and light, not too sweet either, but it may be the crust part that I wasn't as much of a fan of. There are lots of other tart places that do something sinilar and didn't really think these were that memorable. But read this keeping in mind I didn't try to cake items so that product may be better if all you're looking for is a light fluffy dessert that's not too sweet. Try something else here! Just did take out option here so not much to ambiance or service from my experience to speak on.

We worked with Eric via email and he was great managing and making sure everything was settled ahead of the event. On the day of our lunch, we arrived around 20 minutes early and the table was already set up. We had two servers throughout the meal and they were lovely. They made sure everything was set up and we had everything we needed. For a large group reservation, they have a $60 minimum and you order everything ahead of time. (The afternoon tea set is mandatory for everyone to get). We had the afternoon tea set, caprese tarts and strawberry parfait for all attendees. The food was filling and tasty.

And I commonly see the upstairs for private events like baby showers, bridal showers, or birthday parties on social media. After dinner with my friends, I was looking for dessert and I was glad to see this location closes relatively late on a weekday night at 11 pm. Upon walking in, I was greeted by a waiter who led us to one of the purple velvet chair booths that was perfect for two people and another waiter brought us a pitcher of water almost immediately. The menu is on a QR code already on the table and we were given ample of time to decide. My friend and I both already knew what we wanted to order. I got the purple Yam Souffle which takes 25 minutes to make and my friend got the fried squid tails. We also got a signature Rose Green Milk Tea to share. The waitress who took our order has great memory and recalled all of our items without writing it down. She also reminded me that I could adjust the ice and sugar levels of my drink which I had completely forgotten and would have got annoyed if my drink came out 100% sweetness. Another thing is that my drink order frequently comes out wrong at other locations so I was glad she got it right! Green tea instead of black tea and with milk instead of without milk. The purple Yam Souffle is just like the other locations. Hot, soft cakey texture balanced with an ice cold red bean Ice-Cream. So delicious! The squid tails on the other hand was not what we expected. It came out burnt and hard. The outer batter was not crispy either. We informed one of the waiters and he brought it back to inform the kitchen staff. We received a new batch that was not as burnt and had more flavoring this time around. However, the squid was still hard and not like the ones we get from other locations with smaller crispier pieces. Overall, it was still a good experience and I love the decorations at this location! This might be my second favorite location after the Flushing one. Would love to come back for brunch or hi-tea. Or regular food options when I have not already eaten dinner. My usual go-tos are the twister fries, Santa Fe chicken rolls, fried salted crispy chicken, and the trio dessert combo. However, this location has a lot more variety! FYI - there are two unisex restrooms in the rear for customers to use with really cute wallpapers too.
