Who Wants Cupcakes?

 This past Memorial Day Weekend John and I were in New York City for the Phillies game. On our LOOONNGGG trek to our hotel we passed by a bakery called "Baked by Melissa." We didn't have the time to stop then but we made sure to stop in on our walk back to our bus stop. At first glance it seemed like an ordinary cupcakery until we walked in...
  Baked By Melissa specializes in mini cupcakes and when we say mini we mean super mini. These cupcakes are at the very most two bites. They are no larger than a quarter in size but still manage to pack tons of taste. Not only does this bakery offer a different shape and size in their cupcakes but they also have a wide selection in flavors. Some of the offered flavors include Peanut Butter & Jelly, Chocolate Chip Pancake, S'mores, and Mini of the Month (this month was Strawberry).
  After noticing the sign for the bakery it was easy to tell that their signature cupcake is Tie-Die. This cupcake is very simple in ingredient and flavor, however, its vibrant color is what sets it apart. The cake is actually tie-dyed and the icing is a simple white with confetti sugar. This was one of the five flavors John and I tried and we loved it!
  We chose to buy a half dozen of the miniature cupcakes, but after finishing them we both agreed that we could have finished the half dozen on our own easily because of the size. The flavors we tried included: Tie-dye, Peanut Butter & Jelly, Red Velvet, Chocolate Chip Pancake, and Strawberry. The box cost us around $6.00 and even though it seemed a little expensive it was definitely an understandable price because of the Times Square location and detail in each cupcake.
  We would DEFINITELY recommend that you stop by Baked By Melissa if you are ever in New York City! There are four locations, which can be found on their website listed below.
