First time having a cupcake baked by Melissa. They were delivered to my house. Packaged was sealed nicely with an ice pack to keep them fresh. Needlessly to say we dig right in and what a treat. Small bite size wonders, each their own unique flavor. Cookies and cream, peanut butter and jelly, red velvet- I could go on and on. What a cute idea. I would definitely send them to others. read more

Definitely worth a visit! A small store with helpful service. The cupcakes are small BUT they are the perfect size. Makes great gifts. Also, they have gluten-free cupcakes which are soooo good! read more

The cupcakes themselves are amazing, but not the best experience. The last time I visited NYC I went to a different Baked by Melissa and I remember there being so many options. I definitely did not have the same experience this time. There were only 7 fresh cupcake options- the most popular ones and the flavor of the month. It seemed like this locations big thing was already packed containers, so if that's what you're looking for, this location is the way to go. They had vegan, gluten free, latest and greatest, Christmas, valentines, zodiac, tobasco and seasonal- all in ready-to-go containers. Those all had 24 in a pack though which seemed like a ton, so I wanted to build my own of a smaller pack which was hard to do. Inside, the employees seemed to be judging us. Also there is no where to sit and enjoy your goodies- it's definitely a take to go place. They are definitely NOT an all natural company, their cupcakes are full of dyes and chemicals- even the plain white one. The cupcakes themselves are tasty and I love that they are so small and easy to pop in your mouth. It doesn't feel as much as a full sized cupcake even when eating multiple. The cake is delicious- so moist and probably the best cake I've had. The frosting is fine. They have such fun and unique flavors which are so yummy. read more

Cotton candy cupcake was really good! The worker Andre was also very knowledgeable and kind with helping pick out my flavors!

Great concept, but pretty expensive for quality and quantity I just don't understand why people would pay so much for a bundle of itsy bitsy cupcakes that are pretty dry. I would prefer the full sized ones. As for the location, staff is great and friendly and getting what you want is pretty quick and easy. IG: QueenOfAdventureNYC read more

The tiny cupcakes are cute and pretty good but not happy with the shipping charge of $29.95 to ship from NY to NY.. to my son. A $37 order turned to $60.95. read more

I've been a loyal customer of Baked by Melissa and have made it a tradition to order your cupcakes every year for my daughter's birthday. Unfortunately, my recent experience at this location was disappointing. When I arrived to pick up my order, I was met with a very rude and dismissive response from someone named Karen. When I asked a simple question, she responded with, "IDK, I don't work here," which was both confusing and unprofessional. If she is interacting with customers, she should be properly trained, or perhaps reconsidered for a customer-facing role. I truly hope this is addressed, as this tradition is special to me and I'd like to continue supporting Baked by Melissa in the future. Thank you for your time read more

My daughter wanted to go here and get the minis to take home. The employees were not that helpful to be honest. We got a variety and we were going to be taking them on a plane. They said they would be ok. After the employee ran my credit card, I saw sign that mentioned the rewards program (which I am a part of). I said please add these for my rewards - to which she replied - I can't do that. I asked her why she didn't ask me this before you rang up my credit card. She was totally rude. I asked for a phone # for me to call to get the rewards added to my account. What a pain. The other employee said - it was an honest mistake - yes, it might have been but she should have made it right. She could care less. So when I got home, I tried calling - but then I emailed and they did get back to me the next day - I had to follow up again to make sure they added my points to my account -which eventually they did. I think they need a lot of help with customer service. Not cool. Not cool at all. As my friend has said to me - there are plenty of cupcake places around! read more

So , how do the reviews go missing ? I did this one ? I mentioned we saw Melissa on GMA . I like these bite size sweet treats . To ship , they do get a bit pricey But they make such a splash And they definitely delight . Some reviews say they all taste the same ? Hmm I don't get that . To me distinctly different . They are at Jet blue terminal , JFK . And several locations in NYC . They wrapped them impressively . Great gift for Mother's Day ! Check them out ! Thank me later read more

If you have a sweet tooth, this is the place to be for a quick bite. Each cupcake is bite sized, moist and very sweet. $1 for a bite. It is nice for serving the purpose of a quick fix. They used to give you a discount for buying in 6 or more but they no longer offer that. Each bite sized cupcake will cost a dollar even if you get a 25-pack. The only difference is the package that will be holding the cupcakes. Note: You can get a free rainbow cupcake sticker from them. read more

1st time trying these & I'm impressed! I got 6 for $9 ($1.25 each). The macarons (cookie dough & snickerdoodle) are super sweet but so good! The cupcakes (mint cookie, chocolate chip pancake, chocolate bar & chocolate covered graham cracker) were really good too! read more

3.5 stars Got a box of 12 mini cupcakes as a gift from my best friend! I've passed by this place on several occasions while heading to work but never gave it a try because of the mediocre reviews and because the small cupcakes make them look prepackaged. The cupcakes are actually not bad though. They're all very moist and not dry. I actually like how they're small because then you get to try a lot of different flavors at a time without feeling guilty. All of them tasted good but the flavors that I particularly liked were: - Chocolate chip pancake - Peanut butter and jelly - Tie dye - A white one with a pink cookie on top I think boxes of these cupcakes make great gifts. They're packaged very nicely and they taste good as well. Obviously they're not as good as the juggernauts like Magnolia and Molly's but they still make for great treats. Will definitely keep them open as an option for future gifting purposes :) read more

I've never actually been to a Baked by Melissa, but I've gotten their cupcakes as gifts a few times, and I think that for that purpose they make really great ones. I don't know if I would ever buy these delicacies for myself because a dollar a bite (sometimes more) seems excessive, but there's no denying those really are heavenly mouthfuls of sweetness. I'm not super into regular sized cupcakes because I think they generally look way better than they taste, particularly the cake part, which can come out rather dry, but the dainty Baked by Melissa treats are scrumptious. If you've never had them, they're worth writing down as a Secret Santa wishlist item so you don't need to feel guilty about spending that kind of money on baked goods. read more

Super cute! While driving by I thought they were mini French macarons and I was half right. They specialize in micro mini cupcakes, so small they're only $1 each and less in calories. Wasn't able to try any micro macarons, saving room for Ladureé. I only tried the very green Mint Cookie, tasted ok, crisp bites of Oreo on there. Red velvet looked good too. They have Baked by Melissa in multiple locations. I wouldn't mind dropping by again to try other flavors. Service is fine. T-shirts for sale. read more

Awful customer service. Product never arrived and was unable to reach anyone at the office for over 2 weeks. Would never order from them again. Plus they are shitty cupcakes. read more

I really like Baked by Melissa. We have been eating their cupcakes before they had a chain and was just a walk-up stand in SoHo. We love all the flavors especially the new macaron cupcakes. I just had them do a 100 cupcake order for me and they did a terrific job. We love Baked by Melissa! read more

So disappointed!!! I had gone past Baked by Melissa shops for ages and finally my family made a stop. We totally expected more of a bake shop instead of these miniature offerings, but we thought we'd give it a try and bought a dozen of the "cupcakes." Finally, tasting them back in the hotel room, we were all very underwhelmed. These are smaller than even two-bite brownies, really they are less than a bite each. Now I know to just pass this place by. read more

Quick and friendly service! I did an online order and they were really quick to accommodate my order. The cupcakes were already packed and ready to go. Just recently I went to order Thanksgiving cupcakes in the evening. They still had plenty of choices and the cupcakes were fresh. read more

As I was walking down Lexington I decided to stop by Baked by Melissa and try one of these teeny tiny cupcakes! The price was right-$1.00. I wanted one with peanut butter. I don't like jelly so the nice girl at the counter said to try the chocolate with peanut butter inside. I think she called it Scotcheroo. It was so small I took one bite just to see the inside. Then I finished it off! It is really tiny enough for one bite! So delicious! That was my first Baked by Melissa experience. Now today I see they added mini muffins. Excellent. Moist and bite size. Just enough to take with me in my bag. They have a cute little plastic to go box. When I left I snapped a picture of the one I purchased today. This is a take out only place. The space is small. It will fill up with customers. I now have a time of day I go when it's not as busy. I chat with employees. They are really nice! The cupcakes and my muffin today are very tasty. I'd like to try many of the other flavors. I'll go back when I just need that little something sweet! Or maybe I'll try another flavor that sounds appetizing just for fun! I do know if I bought a box I wouldn't be able to control myself. I'd be Yelping from my hospital bed! read more

I love baked by Melissa and I spend way too much there especially now since they're way more than 1$ each now and buying more offers no discount. Anyways I went to this location and bought a dozen they were really good. Until I started to eat a chocolate one and tasted something funny and guess what I pulled out a long hair blech ......Will not be going back to this location. Bleh now excuse me while I go throw up in a corner. read more

I went in to try two cupcakes, apple ($1 each) and cookies and cream ($1.50 each because it was gluten free option). Both were good but there was nothing extra ordinary about them. Personally I think the place is overrated. The service at this location is terrible. They are very slow and unorganized, took forever to get my two cupcakes. read more

Tiny yummy goodness!!! Perfect bite sized mini cupcakes that are SO soft and tasty. A wonderful range of flavors and here are my favorites: cookies and cream, chocolate fudge, red velvet and PB&J!! :) read more

I've been wanting to try this place for so long and I'm so glad I finally got the chance! I got a box of 6 bite sized cupcakes for $5.50. I know a lot of people were complaining about the price but o understand. Yes they are small but they are so intricately designed and obviously take a lot of time to make. I wish there were larger cupcakes because I couldn't get enough! The peanut butter and jelly was amazing. I also loved the golden Oreo one! They are so moist and not too sweet and oh so flavorful. Definitely better than most cupcakes I've tried. It's hard to get proportions right with such small cakes but they did it! read more

New cupcake location? A few blocks away from school and work? In most cases, those facts alone would have me sold. I'd be frequenting this place all the time for sweet treats, BUT i just really don't get Baked By Melissa. Why you so tiny, cupcakes?! No, really. They're just too small, i feel like a strange giant next to them. I honestly don't feel like they're worth a $1 each. If they're the size of the quarter, then they should cost a quarter. Sprinkles is just down the block and they sell decent sized, delicious cupcakes for $3. Much better deal in my opinion. Then again, i could be biased since i LOVE spinkles. I do like that the decor is sleek and modern, all white and glass. Very UES. The flavors are also quite interesting, the tie-dye and mint chocolate chip are pretty tasty. If only i could actually get the full taste, you would need to munch on at least 2 or 3 of the same flavor to even understand what you're eating. Overall, i still don't get this place but if you like the novelty of tiny itsy bitsy cupcakes at a dollar a piece then by all means enjoy this new location! read more

The cupcakes were great, they were so moist and they tasted exactly like how they should. They also had so many different flavors to choose from. I don't know how many of these places around NY can make money enough to keep standing. I guess only one way: Tourists. The miniature cupcakes are a big waste though. I swallowed it in one gulp. It size wasn't worth the cost. I think it's cute for a surprise, but as far as buying it to eat - biggest waste of money. read more

I mean mini cupcakes the young man with blonde hair behind the counter was super patient and helpful. Love love love it.

Cute concept, but way overpriced! At almost a dollar per piece (depending on how many you purchase at once), these lil suckers are about an inch in size and you can literally finish one in 2 bites. They do have a good variety of flavors though. Here are the ones I've tried just now: Tie Dye Triple Chocolate Fudge Red Velvet Chocolate Dipped Pink Velvet Cookies & Cream Lemon Cheesecake Each lil cupcake was surprisingly moist and all the flavors were just ok... with the exception of the lemon cheesecake (their Mini of the Month), which was pretty gross... way overly sweet and tart.. highly not recommended! As for quantities, you can purchase these in a box of 3. 6. 12, 25, 50, 100 and they get slightly cheaper per piece as you buy more. They also have a bunch of flavors that are chocolate dipped that go over a dollar per piece. I tried the chocolate dipped pink velvet and it was pretty good, but still did not justify the pricetag, sorry! Overall, Baked by Melissa's was fun to try, but I doubt I'd go back for more... especially with Sprinkles and Magnolias right around the vicinity.. read more

Just $1 per cupcake! You can just eat 2 to 3 and satisfy your sugar cravings. Without loading up on a million calories! I tried 3 cupcakes. Triple chocolate(da beeeest) Red velvet (pretty nice) and some colorful one (hated it) As you can see in the picture .. I ate half of the triple chocolate one before I even took a pic :p read more

Holy tiny muffins, Batman! The good news here is that it's hard to feel guilty about getting a 3-pack when they're the size of quarters. The other good news is that you're out $3 for some gourmet stuff. The only bad news was the cereal-flavored mini-muffin. Pass! However, the snickerdoodle and cinnamon bun were delicious. And it doesn't hurt that the store is SO well-named ;) read more

Came here last week with my sister to pick up a 20-pack of Baked by Melissa's signature mini-cupcakes. Service was easy and they allowed us to custom built our pack and choose pretty much whatever flavors we wanted as long as they weren't covered in hard chocolate - those cost extra. But whatevs, with such an array of different flavors it's totally cool. We got cookie dough, Oreo cookies & cream, peppermint chocolate (complete with a Junior Mint on top - THESE WERE MY FAVORITE!!), their flavor of the month which is a hot cocoa (topped with a mini marshmallow), red velvet, triple chocolate fudge, chocolate chip pancake and a bunch more. I was torn between 3 and 4 stars, but decided to go with 3 (A-OK) because that's exactly what Baked by Melissa bakeries are. Yes, their cupcakes are tiny, overpriced for what they are and although delicious, after awhile they all kind of start to taste the same to me (except for their yummy peppermint one which is apparently limited edition and only a part of their winter collection, booooo!) but they make for fun gifts and are calorie-efficient for whenever you just want a quick burst of sweetness. The staff at this location were friendly, quick and efficient. I would come back here if I needed to pick some up for a gathering of a cute gift, but not to stuff my face. For that I would just get an average sized cupcake ^_^. read more

Yummy good cupcakes the size of a quarter, how wonderful. I love that some have a filling. Each month, there is a new cupcake of the month. $1 each, but also sold in groups of 3, 6, & larger, that you custom select. Especially love these cupcakes when you want a little bit of cupcake & you don't want a regular size, you just want a tiny taste, this is it...often no guilt unless you eat 30 or a huge amount. Creative flavor combos. Love the frosting. read more

Baked By Melissa has pretty cute bitesized cupcakes, and their stickers & press on tattoos are cute too... but they're way overpriced. :( It would be a cute thing to get as a birthday gift, or maybe a small get together, girl's (or guy's) night indoors, or just to tame a small craving. I wish these cupcakes were bigger-- but then again, these small things are as sweet as it gets. I personally think they're just right. Some find it too sweet, others find it bland. We all have different tastebuds, ya know? So go try it out for yourself! Having it one time just to know what the hype is about isn't so bad. I mean, even if your experience isn't top notch, you can always still count on the free sticker and tattoo being cute enough to leave satisified. *All flavors are awesome, but chocolate chip pancake, cookie dough, vanilla cookie, and oreo cookie have to be my favorites. ...I like cookies. Can't help it. **Chocolate covered ones cost more. read more

My friends and I shared a pack of 6 cupcakes, which we were really excited about because of the store's whole cute miniature aesthetic. Nothing too special about the cupcakes. They were just light and sweet--perfect if you don't really have much of a sweet tooth because they're so small. It was nice to check out the place, but it was a little pricey for 6 little cupcakes, so maybe just a one-time thing while you're in NYC. read more

So Baked by Melissa is very interesting to me. I remember it being a little stand in my local mall in Garden State Plaza. I didn't think much of it until the business grew and started to make macarons. I love their gluten free cupcakes and their macarons are delicious. The birthday cake one is to die for! Call me crazy, but I like them a lot more than some of the bougie macaron places' macarons. Oh, one thing you need to try, given that you are not lactose intolerant, their funfetti cake ice cream. Vanilla ice cream with funfetti cupcake which also includes the frosting!!! They also give you mixed sprinkles on the side. You cannot help but smack your neighbor to the right because it is go good! You're welcome in advance. read more

Strangely my negative review from 2 years ago was removed. This isn't a cupcake. It is a chemical tasting, overly sweetened, artificial colored and flavored tiny piece of I-don't-know-what. And the popularity of their product - beyond me. read more

Well if you like cupcakes, and you have too much money, and like eating one bite of the things; then this is the place for you! The cupcakes are really nice, moist, and intricately put together with many layers of flavor. I recommend the dark chocolate cake varieties. To be honest, it is just too much money for what you get. Perhaps Lexington Ave can sustain it... read more

Kids love this! I always gift these cutie yummy good sized cup cakes to kids. You'll surely get some hugs and smile. They're good for adults too. A little bt addictive since it's bite size, you'll never know you finish the tray from one to another. Plus you can choose your flavors. They're so prety they come in colors and in tiny bitsy bites. You can call ahead and make your order or do it online and set a pick up time. It's that easy. Grab some, you won't regret. read more
