I loved being able to grab a tiny 6-pack for my flight--because, let's be honest, cupcakes make any trip better! I do wish there was an option to pick your own flavors, but the pre-selected options were still tasty. Super friendly customer service! Not too much on display or decor/ambiance in the location, making it look less inviting. Great for a quick stop pre flight for something sweet. read more

I of course now baked by Melissa from social media. So when I saw she had a store in JFK I decided to stop in. Honestly walking in it's looks kind of run down or almost fake. I paid $20 for the 12 pack. I would say they were just okay and basically all tasted the same. Wasn't impressed. read more

Want to indulge on the sweetness of Baked by Melissa without traveling to the city? This is what the airport location is for. Whether one is looking to satisfy a sweet craving or get an edible gift for someone while in transit, this location at JFK's Terminal 5 is a good option for all of the above, It honestly feels like any location of BBM, all with the minimalist decor and constant bustle of in/out traffic of folks ordering these minis for takeout. While I have been told the cupcakes are baked offsite and brought here, I'm under the impression / understanding that they're replenished several times daily. This makes sense, seeing as I've never come here and not found anything I've wanted. The cupcakes are just like what one would find in Manhattan, albeit slightly more expensive. The red velvet, dye are still the ones to get but the rest of their sweets are definitely worth checking out. They're available as singles, 6 packs, and ever-indulgent 25 pack. I tend to get the latter as gifts for friends, especially non-New Yorkers, who always come away impressed. read more

I ordered these last week for my husband's birthday... selected yesterday as the delivery date. They were right on time! Packed with ice packs still cold, not melted at all.. waited until tonight to break them open and let me tell you these little cupcakes pack something powerful. Husband and I both said probably some of the best cupcakes and the best flavors out there! Literally have no complaints! Will definitely be ordering them again! read more

Small location inside the airport and they have certain packages you can pick from. You can't choose what you want but they have so many options even gluten ones. I got the variety pack! It has some classic and new flavors in it. they were super fresh and packaged very neatly. It made it from JFK to MCO. read more

Ever since a friend introduced me to these mini cupcakes, I cannot go past the location at the JFK airport terminal without stopping for some. The cupcake minis are perfect bite-size that fits completely into my mouth in one bite! Moist, yummy, deliciousness! They package them in these neat little containers in packs of as little as 3 or 6, up to about 25 or 50. My go-to flavors of choice are the Cookies & Cream, Triple Chocolate Fudge, and the Cake Batter. They have a few seasonal and holiday flavors in addition to several vegan and gluten free options and macarons as well. If you like sweet treats, do yourself a favor and stop in here if you're in JFK Terminal 5! read more

These tiny cupcakes are very moist! I got them for my plane ride and saved some for the next day. They were not dry at all which was great. I had the red velvet and tie dye ones. Both were good, not too overwhelmingly sweet. They're so small though that you really need to be mindfully chewing them if you want to savor them! read more

The "cupcakes" are more like mini muffin tops, if that. We paid almost $5 for 3 small thumb-sized bites. We ordered the red velvet, crème de leche, and the peanut butter and jelly. They were so tiny and just tasted like sugar bread. I couldn't really taste the flavors of these bites because there was so much sugar in them, but maybe other flavors taste more like they claim to be. The peanut butter and jelly tasted the most like it was supposed to be, but it still wasn't something spectacular (you can make your own peanut butter and jelly). For the price, it's not really worth it because it's small and the flavors were not spectacular. I don't think I'd come here again. read more

As soon as I walked out of the airport from the jetBlue terminal, I had my eye on Baked by Melissa. I saw it all over New York City, but it wasn't until my return flight that I got the chance to finally try it. Baked by Melissa has bite-sized morsels of cupcakes and macarons. In comparison to a standard cupcake, they're basically button-sized. I loved how such proportionately small they were, because I hardly finish a regular cupcake. Furthermore, this was perfect for me because a.) I'm very indecisive and b.) I could sample all the flavors if I wanted to. However, I exercised no self control and easily ate the whole box before I even got on my plane. The dough for the cupcakes was very soft and moist on all the cupcakes. I got a custom 12-pack with a mix of 11 cupcakes and 1 macaron. (You pay extra if you add macarons.) Here is my review for each one: 1. Black and white macaron - Top 5 favorite. Very good! I really enjoyed this, and I thought that it balanced the chocolate and vanilla quite well. 2. PB&J - Top 5 favorite. The peanut butter was light and whipped. The small dollop of jelly was a nice touch. 3. Dulce de Leche - Not memorable 4. Double Cookie - Not memorable 5. Cookies and Cream - Not memorable 6. Mint - Top 5 favorite. Great chocolate/mint flavor. 7. Memorial Day special - This was a special for Memorial day. It was vanilla flavored. 8. Pink sugar cookie - Not memorable. Didn't care much for the sugar cookie flavors. 9. White sugar cookie - Not memorable. Didn't care much for the sugar cookie flavors. 10. Tie-dye - Didn't get to eat this flavor, although my boyfriend said it was good and his #1 favorite from the entire pack. 11. Chocolate chip - Top 5 favorite. This was just a very comforting flavor for me. It tasted exactly like a gooey chocolate chip cookie. 12. Peanut butter cup - Top 5 favorite. Exactly what you think it should taste like. The whipped peanut butter is great. read more

If a cupcake is the progeny of a cake; If a mini cupcake is the progeny of a cupcake; If a micro cupcake is the progeny of a mini cupcake; Then you'll get the drift of what awaits you. Take a deep breath in and one of those slim-man micro cupcakes might end up in your nose or lungs. There are very few things you can eat smaller than these. A kernel of corn, a pea, grape, 5 Cheerios.... that's about it. Alright, now for the heartbreaker--they taste amazing. The frostings are indulgently delicious and the cake themselves nothing short of stupendous. Sugar cookie tastes just like one, cookies and cream--same, I could go on. read more

Deeeeeelicous! I don't have a big sweet tooth but I had to try this place out after a few recommendations from friends. We had lunch already and wanted just a little something sweet. The 6 mini cupcakes were perfect for 3 people. The cupcakes are the perfect size for one bite. We got 6 for $7.50. They have normal flavors and seasonal flavors. We came in October so it was Halloween time. We got snickerdoodle, mint cookie, chocolate chip pancake, cookies and cream and haunted pop chocolate flavors. All delicious, moist and not overly sweet read more

Five star cupcakes along with five star service. The young lady who helped us seemed so excited to be able to describe each one. She clearly enjoys what she does and make this cupcake buying experience fun! Bite size, moist, flavor paced, reasonably priced and really, really good. I really like the texture of these cupcakes, slightly chewy and moist... all this in a cupcake the size of an oreo. We've had these cupcakes at JFK airport and Roosevelt field mall. Smart move putting a location on the way to your plane. These went perfectly with a coffee at 35,000 feet. It was nice to have a little variety too. I thing my favorite is the red velvet. Next time, I buy a dozen... for myself! read more

This is the new thing in New York - tiny little cupcakes for $1.00 each. I had been to an NYU Bookstore open house the day before where they served these little treasures. They are meant to be eaten in one bite so you can enjoy the clever blending of flavors. I bought 12 for $10 for my husband (huge cupcake lover!) and asked for one of each flavor to test out as many flavors as possible. They are so friggin' adorable!!! And they come with a menu so you can match up which ones you're eating. I know it's a gimmick but they are moist and delicious. Fun to share! read more

Super good but wish they were a little bigger. They're cute little bites but super easy to devour a 24 pack. Great flavors and really moist cakes.

The only thing better then full sized deliciousness is bite sized. I needed a sweet pick me up while I waited for my flight. I was immediately drawn to the shop full of tiny treats. Cupcakes and macaroons. I picked out a 6 pack cupcake sampler. Each slightly different but all quite tasty. Different icings, batter and toppings. I like being able to try many different flavors without having to purchase large treats. Each is literally a pop in your mouth bite size, shareable if you are really congniscent of your bite. Located in terminal 5 at JFK near jet blue flights. A nice change from the usual candy at the magazine shop. The cookie dough was my favorite. read more

Maybe Melissa has an established product following and I am just out of the loop, but I was underwhelmed by this place. Cute setup, good selection of flavors, but the "cupcakes" themselves are like 1/5th the size of a regular mini cupcake- they seem to be going for the "just the tops" crowd, but when I'm paying dollar for a piece of undercooked cake the size of my thumbnail, it better be amazing. But it's not- tastes like the dough is barely cooked, but I will say that the flavors are very distinct. PB&J and their version of Mint Chocolate Chip were both good, Red Velvet was very basic, Tie Dye seems to be their take on classic Confetti Cake. Didn't care for their featured Crunch flavor or the chocolate-covered versions. Side note: they also give out an absurd amount of "featured product" ads, brand stickers and tattoos, and other marketing materials with every order. I shouldn't have as many flyers as "cupcakes" with my order. read more

Reading all the reviews makes me sad they didn't offer any cupcakes with macarons on top! Excited to find a Baked by Melissa at the terminal, I bought four 12 piece boxes, one of each flavor, and a 6 piece box all as gifts. I found out adding the tie dye ribbon costs $1 each but what the hey, it looks pretty and presentable. It was very nice of the employees to wrap the boxes up with plastic wrap before adding bows to seal in freshness. Right before our flight, we ate almost a whole dozen so I ran back to the store and bought the 25 piece bubble container for $20 a few minutes before boarding. Good thing we were at the closest gate! We really liked the cookies & cream, mint cookie, red velvet, chocolate chip pancake, and April flavor chocolate Babka with cinnamon filling. I interacted with both employees and they were polite and patient. I added on the 4th dozen while she was tying the ribbon. We also got some free cupcake stickers and temporary tattoos. Pricey at $12/dozen but great NYC gift to bring back home! read more

Baked by Melissa is such a cute little place! It's always refreshing to find a unique food shop at an airport. I do assume that the other locations in NYC are better, however, I always enjoy my cupcakes from Baked by Melissa. The tiny size of the cupcakes are ideal for me because I would rather try a bunch of different types than have one huge cupcake. I always get the pack of six miniature cupcakes and bring them on the plane with me. Each one is delicious! There are so many flavors to choose from. My favorite cupcakes are: pancake, tie-dye, salted caramel and s'mores. They also have macaroons, which I am yet to try, but they look great! read more

I was rushing through customs to get to a connecting flight to Fort Lauderdale as they were boarding passengers. In amidst of all this hustle and bustle, I managed to drop by Baked by Melissa for a quick order of a dozen cupcakes. The guy behind the counter saw the urgency in my face although I tried to keep my composure with a smile (smiling mostly due to the sight of a pretty display of cupcakes galore) -- he quickly suggested getting one of everything since they had 12 flavors out. BOOM. Done. I only requested to opt out Chocolate Mint so I may have two of the Cotton Candy Cuparons (yes, a mini cupcake topped with a macaron shell). I'm also stunned that the cuparons are the same price as the rest of the mini cuppies, because usually macarons are pricy so I would expect an extra $1 or $0.50 charge for the delicate topping. In all, the cupcakes are VERY pretty, in which the term "cute" is super appropriate (it'll be the first word you'll think of at first sight). I enjoyed all the gourmet bites -- made me wish they were bigger so I may enjoy some more! And the to-go bag came with the visual menu, business card, and a sticker of the logo (I was very excited for the sticker). Oh and if you're wondering, yes, I made it to my flight (being one of the last few passengers to board, hehe). read more

Honestly, I don't get the hype. $1.25 for a cupcake that's not mini, not bite size but half of a bite size. You are left standing there feeling jipped and still wondering what you really ate because it was so small you could barely taste it. Mostly cake with a small amount of flavor. Maybe if that small bite exploded with wow flavors....but these do not. You would need to buy their $30 pack of 25 to even feel like you tasted anything and at that price it's just ridiculous. I can't even imagine what Melissa's margins are at these prices. These bite sized cupcakes are cute but that's it read more

$1/macaroon or mini-cupcake! I bought a couple of 5-packs of macaroons because it packed well for traveling but after eating them, I wish I had bought more!! The workers were very patient and sweet and advised that I freeze them if I wasn't going to be eating them right away. Even after coming out of the freezer, the macaroons tasted fresh and delicious. Next time I will try the cupcakes as well! read more

I mean, come on people. It's mini cupcakes. What's not to love? Well, maybe the price... I will admit $1 per bite is a little steep. But, it's still one of the best deals behind security.

Baked by Melissa - 6 pack - Bakeries Near Me - Jamaica, New York

A friend told me that even if I didn't make it to a Baked By Melissa during my time in NYC, not to worry - there was a store within JFK. Before our flight, I had time to check out the airport store. I didn't feel bad about not making it to the original bakery because the airport store had a fantastic selection! Baked By Melissa sells both mini cupcakes and macarons. The vast amount of cupcakes was almost overwhelming ... there were so many flavors! I think because they were also in mini size, it just looked like there was more of them. I had a hard time picking flavors for my six pack, but the girls behind the counter were helpful. There were just so many to choose from! I just felt rather rushed because there were other people in the store waiting to order. Baked By Melissa is great, in terms of taking snacks back home from a NYC trip. The containers are easy to open and close, and it's fun to customize your pack. I just got a 6-pack, but there were bigger sizes (25-pack) available as well. My family was happy with the cupcakes and finished all six quickly! But then again, you can easily pop one of these little guys into your mouth whole. I was just happy that the plastic container was snug and the little cupcakes made it back to Hawaii safely. Here's what I got: "Chocolate Chip Pancake": This cupcake featured a yellow pancake, maple syrup icing, and mini chocolate chips on top. I normally don't like yellow cake, but this was really moist ... completely reminiscent of a pancake. The mini chocolate chips on top provided the perfect texture. "Cookies & Cream": This cupcake featured a chocolate cake, cookies & cream filling, vanilla icing and a petite chocolate cookie on top. I love Oreos, and this cupcake reminded me of just that. The chocolate cake was decadent, and the cookies & cream filling was luscious. The vanilla icing balanced out the chocolate cake perfectly. "Mint Cookie": This cupcake featured a mint cake, fudge filling, mint cookies & cream icing and a mint cookie butter and green drizzle on top. I don't like mint, but one of my family members does, so she loved this flavor. She said the mint flavor was strong, and she readily enjoyed it. "Raspberry Chocolate Chip": This raspberry cupcake topped with chocolate was the featured flavor of the month for June. My family liked how the fruitier cupcake was balanced perfectly by the sweeter chocolate topping. A must-get for any berry lover; too bad it's a seasonal flavor. "Red Velvet": Pure and simple: red velvet cupcake, cream cheese icing and red sugar crystals on top. This was probably one of my favorites of all the cupcakes I got. Red velvet just has to have cream cheese frosting to be legit ... and this didn't disappoint. The red velvet cake was moist and fluffy, and the cream cheese frosting topped it off perfectly. "Tie Dye": This cupcake reminded me of funfetti. It comprised tie-dye cake, vanilla icing and rainbow sugar crystals on top. The blend of colors might turn some off, but to me, the colors just made this one even more fun to eat! It didn't have as strong of a flavor (as the chocolate ones), but it's visually appealing. read more

Overpriced mini cupcakes?? Why not? lol. $1 for a quarter sized cupcake seems outrageous right? I know.. and yet whenever a Baked By Melissa is in my vicinity I feel obliged to indulge. Could it be because they're so cute? So pretty? Fun to look at? Fun to eat? One bite hit and quit? Idk.. but I'll take a 6-pack .. mix it up and make sure you throw in a cupcake of the month flavor. This specific location is right in the middle of JFK terminal 5 not too far from Jet Blue. Even though I was leaving the airport I had to grab some :) you should too! read more

I received a package of 24 initially from my employer for my birthday so when I saw they were also located in the airport I stopped in for a package before our flight. Options are strictly dependent on what they have pre packaged, but the reason why I only gave three stars, is because these things are pricey. I enjoyed it more when my company sent it as a gift. I purchased a six pack for close to $8 and these things are super tiny. Way less than bite size. Yes they are good, but for the price I won't be purchasing them often. read more

I'm sorry Sprinkles but these cupcakes are my new favorite!! And the fact that they're bite sized is even better because now I don't feel guilty having a few of them at once and they have a huge assortment of flavors and I can honestly say that there wasn't one I didn't love, but my absolute favorite is the peanut butter and jelly. We first discovered these at the airport on our trip to New York and bought some as we were leaving the airport and again when we were there to fly home. And coincidentally my husband's birthday was just a few weeks after we got home and of course I had to order some since they're in New York, which was a little pricey but totally worth it and again for Christmas for my daughter, I ordered another box but unfortunately she was sick and I wasn't able to see her until a couple of weeks after they were delivered so I was forced to share them with my husband That'll teach my daughter to visit her mom more often!! read more

This location is in Terminal 5 at the JFK airport but I walked by a few during my stay in New York. It's pretty tempting because each item is mini and only costs $1-2 each, making it impossible to just get one! They have a variety of cupcakes, macarons and muffins to choose from. I ordered a 6-pack mix of a macaron and some cupcakes. My favorite was definitely the cookie dough macaron and the cookie dough cupcake. The blueberry pie cupcake tasted too artificial to me. These would also make a really cute gift, so it's nice that they are located in the airport for people who want to bring stuff home without the trouble of taking it through security. read more

I really don't see what the hype is about. I paid a dollar for a melted, tiny excuse for a cupcake. Yes, the packaging is pretty but that's pretty much what you're paying for. Also, get happier people to work here. You'd think working around sugar would make people happy-but not here apparently.

These were a last minute purchase before hopping onto my favorite airline. Located in Terminal 5 at JFK. (TIP: The jetBlue crew flying JFK to PHX loves these. So buy them some!) Cupcakes are adorably tiny, artfully decorated and they are delicious! The size is what counterbalances any guilt. Zero calories I promise you. Especially when you eat four. 12 cupcakes for $10. Never buy just one. Cupcake art can be ordered. Instead of having a large cake made for an event you can request a large design. These tiny explosions of heavenly goodness are then arranged into the design of your choice. Easy to nibble on without looking like a glutton. (Minimum order of 100 cupcakes for $85. Assembled for pickup or Manhattan delivery available. They ship too but you accept assembly duty!) In a hideous taste of gluttony (But It Is Not - These Are Small) Baked by Melissa offers a "Mini of Month Club". We all need this in our lives. Three, six or twelve months memberships available, with 25, 50 or 100 cupcakes. I say go big. GO BIG! You'll have the rest of the month to work it off. Don't feel left out if you're reading this in Phoenix: Nationwide delivery! $20 minimum + shipping read more

My favorite was definitely the Cookie dough one i loved it a lot. The cookies n cream one was okay it was pretty plain though. The only reason this review has 4 stars is they were way too small, it only took one bite to eat it and then.... Boom, it was gone. But very good and would definitely recommend. read more

I like the idea of a one bite cupcake. You can sample a lot more flavors without all the calories and all the money. After a really long and shitty day of traveling I was drawn to the clean and pretty store. The menu seemed interesting with a variety of flavors and it LOOKED good. But the actual cupcakes in the glass display just looked like they were in the hot sun for too long, like they just melted. They weren't all quite uniform in shape and the size is pretty small for $1. I ordered the cookie dough, the red velvet, and the triple chocolate fudge. I also ordered the chocolate covered cookie cream one. My first (and only) bite of the chocolate covered cookie cream was awful. It tasted like the way packaging styrofoam smells. I don't know what happened. But based on that taste alone, I wouldn't order it, or any of the chocolate covered ones, again. Out of the rest of the cupcakes, the best was probably the cookie dough. It had little bits of cookie dough in it which was what I wanted. The other two were not memorable. Service was polite but tired. read more
