"Tie Dye"
Rating: 5/10
The Tie Dye cupcake looks awesome, but the taste is just boring. I'm personally not a huge fan of vanilla, but if you are, this cupcake is the one for you!
"Cookies and Cream"
Rating: 8/10
If you love Oreos, you're in luck with this cupcake. This cupcake has it all- a chocolate cake, vanilla icing, an Oreo topping, AND it is stuffed with cookies and cream filling! Truly a masterpiece.
"Peanut Butter and Jelly"
Rating: 6/10
This cupcake is very interesting and honestly tastes EXACTLY like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It's filled with jelly and the peanut butter icing compliments it perfectly. It's peanut butter jelly time.
"Cookie Dough"
Rating: 9/10
I love this cupcake because I love eating cookie dough more than I love eating real cookies. Seriously what's not to love about this cupcake- there's cookie dough on top AND stuffed in the cupcake. Win/win situation all around.
"Triple Chocolate Fudge"
Rating: 100/10
THIS ONE IS MY FAVORITE. Then again, I'm biased because chocolate is my life. This cupcake is chocolate on chocolate on chocolate. Chocolate cake, chocolate icing, chocolate cookie topping, and FUDGE STUFFING. This is truly a gift from the chocolate gods.
"Chocolate Chip Pancake"
Rating: 9/10
This cupcake truly tastes like a chocolate chip pancake. And you think that icing is just vanilla? Guess again... MAPLE SYRUP ICING. Yup, this cupcake is interesting and perfect.
"Red Velvet"
Rating: 8/10
Red velvet is just red velvet, right? Wrong. Baked By Melissa does it BETTER. Somehow, they make red velvet taste even more like heaven. A classic, but amazing.
"Mint Cookie"
Rating: 9/10
Ever wondered what a girl scout thin mint cookie tastes like in cupcake form? Well, this is it. This cupcake is the perfect blend of mint and chocolate, including a fudge stuffed center. It's perfect!
These bite sized cupcakes are all over New York and if you haven't had the chance to try them yet, I strongly suggest you go out and get some! And if you don't live in New York- no worries! They ship nationwide for all your cupcake needs.
