Vegan at Baked By Melissa – New York City, NY

Veganism is taking over the world establishment by establishment and your girl aint complaining! BAKED BY MELISSA NOW HAS VEGAN CUPCAKES. And not one flavor, not two, SIX. If you don’t know what Baked By Melissa is (than you live under a rock), it is a bakery that sells MINI BITE SIZED CUPCAKES. You just buy like 12 in a tray and pop them into your mouth one by one. It’s like chips, but cupcakes. GENIUS.

We used to eat these back in the day before we were vegan so my sister and I were SOOO excited to try these. The flavors we got were kale (?), two chocolate ones, one cookie dough one, strawberry, and peanut butter.

Okay. So my sister said she really liked the cupcakes. I thought they were okay. But to be fair, Baked By Melissa isn’t famous for their incredible cupcakes but rather the size of their cupcakes and how few calories each have in them (around 50 cals I think?). So with that in mind, they were pretty good!  DSC02223 DSC02224

The cookie dough and chocolate ones were really yummy! I would honestly buy those again if I passed by a Baked By Melissa.  They have one at JFK. Maybe next time for my flight, I’ll get three mini cupcakes for fun. The strawberry was also really yummy, but for some reason I don’t think I’d get it again. I’m not really a fruit dessert person, but it was yummy.

The peanut butter one I didn’t even eat because I personally think peanut butter isn’t a great flavor for desserts (peanut butter lovers please don’t kill me! Also, now that we are being honest, loving peanut butter is basic!!! Sorry not sorry!! *cue me running away*). And then the last one was kale flavored with sesame seeds on top? Not sure what drug they were on when they created that but NOPE.

BUT all in all, thank you Baked By Melissa for creating options for vegans and being innovative with the flavors! We really appreciate it!!!
