Cupcake Carnival: Baked by Melissa

Have you ever used the line "Cupcakes are portion-controlled sweets!" before? Sure you have! We all have. And then we all probably think the same thing as soon as we say it: "But if you eat two or three at once, not so much." :)

I have found the cupcake you can eat two or three of and not necessarily break the calorie bank. (But good luck stopping at three...)

Aren't they adorable?! They're mini cupcakes by Baked By Melissa. And they make me completely giddy when I see them!

They're very tiny - the size of a quarter when stood on its edge. I'm no calorie expert, but I'd say these have around 85 calories. (Disclaimer: That's a total guess.)


To be so small, you'd be shocked at how yummy, moist, and flavorful they are. They have so many great flavors: mini chocolate chip, tie-dye (which I think is just vanilla, but it's cool to look at), cookies & cream, cookie dough, peanut butter cup, cinnamon, peanut butter & jelly, red velvet, and s'mores.

See? Adorable!

You can order these from the Baked By Melissa web site. They have a minimum order of 50 cupcakes, which is two trays. Or if you're ever in Manhattan, be sure to visit their bakeries. You can get a variety of flavors, or for $5 more, you can choose which flavors you want.

I'm going to have two of these trays sent to friends who just had their second baby. I know dad and little brother will definitely love these. I mean, wouldn't you? :)
