Mini Melanie

The most delicious gluten free cake for my daughter’s Baby Shower/Birthday celebration!! Not only delicious but absolutely gorgeous as well! And delivered on time!! Thank you Melanie, you were a delight to work with!! Looking forward to celebrating again with your sweets!

I ordered a birthday cake for my husband's milestone birthday and it was delicious! I submitted the order online several weeks in advance and via email we confirmed flavor --carrot cake--and frosting, delivery details and payment. All went smoothly, even confirming delivery time to the restaurant, where I didn't have to worry about a thing! The cake was gorgeous and tasty. Everyone loved it, and most especially, my husband, the birthday boy! Thank you Mini Melanie for making this a memorable celebration for us all!

Received a selection of cake truffles from a vendor at work and got to try 4 different ones (had to split them with my colleagues) and was surprised at how moist and flavorful they were especially after being shipped. The truffles themselves looked very nice as well and were very vibrant.

We have used mini Melanie for many cakes For our daughters! They are fun and easy to Work with and cakes are Always beautiful and delicious!

We love this bakery! Awesome owners, beautifully designed sweets! They recently catered our company event and the guests were really impressed by the flavors, and the attention to detail. Mini Melanie truly helped us make our event unforgettable. Try their cake truffles. A must if you’re in NYC and looking for a dessert!

We get a mini version of our wedding cake every year and it makes me so happy. Thank Mini Melanie!! We appreciate you!

Mini Melanie has made my daughters birthday cakes for two years in a row including her individual mini smash cake for her first birthday and it was AMAZING. Most recently we ordered a two tier cake for my sisters engagement party. We always receive so many compliments on how delicious their cakes taste. And they look amazing too!!!! Seriously, they're the BEST!!!!

We ordered a custom chocolate cake with pink ombré frosting for my daughters first birthday and I have to say, it was one of the best chocolate cakes I’ve ever had! Melanie was super easy and delightful to work with, she accommodated the custom size request I had and delivered it straight to our party venue. The cake was stunning and truly tasted delicious. Highly recommend!! 👍🏽👍🏽

Mini Melanie has delicious mini treats. They are perfect for any party. I decided to order online for the holidays. You can make an appointment for pick up in Flushing or they deliver. It's all handled through their beautifully manicured website. They do a good job shipping when I need a gift. Children and adults definitely love Mini Melanie sweets. After I tried my first mini cupcake I had to try a cake pop. I've never had a cake pop until Mini Melanie. I've had the cupcake and the cake pop and both were moist and delicious. Mini Melanie has mini donuts too. I am sure I will order some of those online for delivery. The two pack of truffles are very good. You can purchase large quantities for parties or use their catering services. I definitely recommend Mini Melanie for their sweets and will use them when I'm planning an event. In the mean time I'll continue to order on line for delivery. My friends and family enjoy them immensely. I suggest you go online for the price list and view all the types of items you can purchase. They have cakes too. Mini pastries are perfect for me!

Melanie is onto something here. Her cake truffles are unique, delicious and beautiful. It's perfect as a gift or to treat yourself. They also have great options for office events, baby showers and other happy events in your life. I've had their cake pops and they are also very good. Thank God for social media because it's what connected me to her business. She also has these adorable cookie decorating kits that are perfect for the holidays. We got the Christmas cookie decorating kit for the whole family to do on Christmas and not only was the icing the perfect consistency, the kit arrived with everything you would need to make this activity fun. I'm a fan and will be ordering more from here!

I ordered the caramel apple donut cake. It was amazing and delivered quickly. The cake has many flavors, a bite of apple, caramel and then the little cute donut on top of my slice. So very good. I'm glad I found the place via Instagram.

I must've found this place on a social media ad, because I couldn't tell you how your girl here from the Bay Area would've came across Mini Melanie out in Brooklyn. What I can tell you though is that I'm so happy I discovered them! I wanted to get the best of all worlds, so I got the Signature Mix of cake truffles. I was very pleased with the quality of the packaging and condition of the truffles upon arrival. The truffles were packed with 3 blocks of ice, and the box with the truffles still felt cold to the touch despite traveling across the country for 3 days. None of the truffles were broken or melted, but I went ahead and stuck them in the fridge before trying them. The instructions in the box advised to store them in the fridge anyway. I have to be honest: I've had ganache filled truffles, which are pretty basic as they come, but not cake ones. Although I can't compare Mini Melanie's cake truffles to another brand, I will go as far as saying that these cake truffles have set the bar really high for me. They were excellent! The cake was super moist, and I loved how each truffle tasted from its unique filling. The chocolate coating had a nice bite to it as well. My favorites were s'mores, red velvet cake, key lime pie and cookie dough, and yet you can't go wrong with any of the flavors in the signature mix.

We received a wonderful surprise by FedEx: A black and white layer cake sent as a gift for my wife's 81st birthday. It was in a heavy box, well wrapped in thick plastic, so well wrapped that I needed kitchen shears and a lot of determination to extract the cake intact. Once removed, The Cake was beautiful to behold, but it seemed so heavy for its size. Dense! Also in the shipping carton was a little plastic, screw-top jar and a small candy box with two truffle-like small candies, but no explanation as to the purpose of these "extras." I poked at what looked like ganache in the jar, but it was too thick to spread, so I microwaved it for 5-seconds. Better....so another 5-seconds and it was very pourable. Tasted, it was excruciatingly sweet, but definitely chocolate..y too. Since there was just the two of us, I decided to cut two slices and pour the chocolate over each slice instead of topping the whole cake...and the amount of sauce wasn't really enough for that anyway. Cutting the cake: I decided that 1/8th looked like a good portion. But what type of knife to use for a gooey cake? Ah, the Henckels 10" gratin blade would perfect...razor sharp with those little grooves that permits it to easily cut sticky foods. I often use it for semi-soft cheeses. Well, it took a lot of "heavy persuasion" to get that knife to work through this unusual cake. Is this what gluten-free cake is all about...so dense that it almost defies a thin sharp blade? I plated the two slices and drizzled the chocolate sauce over each slice. Deciding to forgo the birthday candle, I served the perfect slices with a dessert fork. We sat down together and each cut a forkful....but clearly something was wrong. The texture? It was too tough and firm. And what was this indescribable texture in my mouth? It wasn't cake-like at all. It was as if the cake had spent a week on display in a cake museum, stale, hard, and lacking in flavor. It was unpleasant in terms of texture too...stale to the point of wondering if it was even safe to eat. We looked at each other and both of us giggled...a little nervously...as we pushed the plates aside and reached for a glass of water to try and get the taste of dry spackle out of our mouths. How would we ever be able to explain our experience to the ever so thoughtful beloved cousin who'd wanted to send a real treat for my dear wife's epic birthday? It would be awkward, to say the least! We shared some delightfully smooth Tillamook Vanilla Bean Ice Cream to cleanse the pasty taste of that "beautiful cake" from our mouths. I'm still mystified...

I got the chance to try some of Mini Melanie's sugar cookies because my apartment lounge was giving them out to celebrate Valentine's Day. I've never particularly been in love with sugar cookies, and the number of times I've had the type that are super cutely decorated are less than a handful. But I really loved these ones! They weren't too sweet, and I thought the actual cookie itself was the perfect balance of both crunchy and soft. The designs they had for Valentine's Day were on point and of course, appropriate for the holiday!

Wow!! I am blown away at how quick and easy it was to look at all the items available to order and to actually make an order. Unfortunately, I made my order way too quickly without double checking the small details, and I wrote the wrong address for the goodies to be mailed to. I immediately contacted someone on chat and Diana (not a robot) was able to help me within seconds. I got a confirmation on email that the address was changed and minutes later I saw that they made a ticket with fedex to expedite the shipping process. Yes!!! I love how they're getting the ball rolling and keeping me in the loop with every correction and matter. I am a new customer from Texas (I found out about this company through rue la la.) Based on my wonderful experience I will happily do business with this company again for shipping delicious treats to family and friends nationwide. The cookies and the truffles tasted amazing and the items did not ruin in transit!

The desserts here are incredible! We've ordered multiple cake pops and a birthday cake so far and the service and quality were exceptional! That's may very well be the best dessert bakery in Brooklyn!

I tried mini melanie for the first time over the holidays, since I love trying out new boutique dessert shops, and the desserts here were simply mind-blowing! I ordered holiday cake pops, coquito (Puerto Rican eggnog) cake truffles, and signature cake truffles. Each of these desserts were so gooey, soft, chocolatey, flavorful yet not too overwhelmingly sweet, and overall just perfect! The desserts were so beautifully decorated too, especially the ones with a marbled or glittery appearance. These cake-based desserts can be stored for up to 3-weeks in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer. I'm absolutely in love with mini melanie and can't wait to order from here again! Their desserts make perfect gifts for birthdays, holidays, and any other special occasion. According to their website, this shop sells mini cakes as well, but sadly, those cakes are only available for pick-up orders from their shop in Brooklyn. If I'm ever in the area, I'm definitely swinging by!

I can't express how much I appreciate Mini Melanie, living out in Chicago, Illinois I wanted to send a friend a birthday gift in NYC and I'm glad I found the perfect place. Mini Melanie were on top of my needs, answered every question I had and made sure my delivery was made the day of his birthday. I've attached a pic of his birthday delivery, the hand written note and the perfect packaging. Thank you, Mini Melanie, I look forward to doing business with you again. Not to mention that I'm in NYC often and will rave about your business.

Most delicious cake truffles I have ever had . Blows Momofuku Milk Bar out of the WATER!!! My favorites were the Kate( key lime) , Zoe (party cake). And the one with the marshmellow fluff. I wouls steer away from the gluten free- they taste more gooey/ like straight sugar because its gluten free. Oh the red velvet cake is incredible as well wow.

Awesome petit fours! Sometimes the chocolate coating is a bit much for me, but the balance between the coating and the cake was perfect on these.

Honestly spend your money somewhere else. All the pastries are stored for months before being packaged and sold. The only thing that is made by order is the packaging of the products into the shipping box. The cooks always have covid n never wear mask. I went in the kitchen and I saw hair inside of the tray with the holiday cookies. The truffles are made of left over crumbs and then over priced. They are also money hungry and selfish. The products look better than they taste. There are also so many other way better tasting and less pricey pastries being sold at small black owned businesses that actually care about their customers and their employees. These women gave their worker covid then fired him while he was at home sick days before Christmas with no warning. Then proceeded to pay the girl with no family to take care of for the whole rest of the week and not pay the man. In fact they took money from his paycheck and left a family with a baby struggling for the holidays while they ask other to support them for the holidays. They deserve to burn in hell.DONT BUT FROM THEM. Give your money to a better cause. They already deleted my comment on instagram and they think I'm just gonna shut up while they spread covid for money and use people then discard them.

Oh. My. GOD! Mini Melanie is everything you want in custom confections, and more! Mini Melanie provided the desserts for my bridal shower and they were nothing short of fantastic. I had an almond cake with vanilla buttercream that was the talk of the party! I'm not much of a cake person, but this cake was pleasantly sweet with a great cake to frosting ratio. The cake truffles were out of this world, and the mini cupcakes and tarts were perfect for those who wanted to mingle and snack! I will be placing an order from Mini Melanie in August for a cake for my groom! :)

I don't know how that place got these 5 star reviews. We bought a cookie pie size of a very thick cookie for 12$ a pieces, I wouldn't pay even 4$ for something like this. It was hard as a rock, taste was just ok. Worse 12$ spent

Hell no I don't recommend this place to anyone for business anymore. I want to clarify originally I had so much respect for these people for years until now. And they also ruined my birthday! Which is September 26. That's coming up! So Here's my my specific reasons why this place is now horrible starting off with number 1 for one my biggest reasons is the disrespectful owners and management. I have spent I don't even know where to begin how much MONEY for YEARS supporting these owners who don't value and respect real individuals or real customers who have supported their businesses for years!!!!! me being one of them! Who lives in California by the way! I want to clarify the last purchase which was from my mom which she made a week ago! This purchase was by the way from my mom who is by the way a lawyer in a different state who was trying to surprise me for my birthday buying this cake my birthday which is on Monday September 26 by the way the owners had the audacity then to leave my house gift in their wear house not shipped at all on top having my cake being messed up from the heat leaving it there overnight and then they had the audacity of not apologizing to me or the lawyer (my mom) about having it fixed immediately for Monday for my birthday but no instead they wanted to wait days later after my birthday to mail it and after My mom paid for the expensive cake they wanted to have it mailed days later when it was promised on Monday, omg why in the world would I want a birthday cake mailed to me days later after my birthday is done are you literally out of your mind and you ruined my birthday! Yeah that is beyond disrespectful. And by the way I had mentioned to them in an Instagram message at the very beginning of the month how I was interested to buy this for my birthday and they knew I had a very difficult month already with things that I was dealing with how could you do that to someone on their birthday someone explain that to me that because that is beyond disrespectful as a business owner and you know that. And by the way I want to mention some thing else a few months ago before this I ordered some thing from their website which then got destroyed by the way in the mail it was a cake pop delivery. You just lost a good and very valuable loyal customer forever! You all are disrespectful imbeciles and jerks! with this business! And by the way I'm glad I got my cake refunded after demanding that because I will never buy anything from your business ever again!

I ordered 24 Valentine's Day cake pops from here via Goldbelly.com . Placed my order far enough in advance and they didn't ship out until AFTER VD! Not only did they arrive 2 days late, but they also came smashed. These were $$$. I had a VD event that I had purchased these for, so not only are they super late, but non salvageable because of how damaged they are.

I received Mini Melanie truffles as a gift, so I can't speak to the ordering process. They were custom made and given to me by a major brand; Mini Melanie has some great corporate partnerships! The truffles, beautifully shaped like gems, were absolutely divine. I love sweets and often seek out buzzworthy bakeries and shops, but rarely does something delight me like the Mini Melanie truffles! They're not chocolate truffles, they're like more cake pops. They just melt in your mouth. I'm glad they don't have a storefront or I would lose my money and my figure eating these.

All the confections I've ordered from Mini Melanie are show stoppers! Taste and inspired designs: perfection every time.

Melanie, Just got off the phone with Sarah. VERY disappointed and disturbed with the service I just received over the phone. I just tried to order a birthday cake. Sarah, advices me to go to a retail store and purchase a cake if I didn't like the type of payment.

Mini Melanie has made my daughters birthday cakes for two years in a row including her individual mini smash cake for her first birthday. Most recently we ordered a two tier cake for my sisters engagement party. We always receive so many compliments on how delicious their cakes taste. And they look amazing too!!!! Seriously, they're the BEST!!!!

A funfetti cake was delivered to me as a birthday surprise and was I grateful for it - gluten free deliciousness. My 8-year-old tasted the difference and was not a fan but he loved the birthday cake truffles that came along with the order. I was satisfied with my cake. Yes, you can taste the difference, but the icing was not too sweet, and the cake was moist and again not blood sugar raising. I took off one star because I was told four truffles and a card were also ordered. There was no card in the box, and we received two truffles instead of four. My son could have went for the other two.

I loved working with Melanie and was so happy with my mini cakes for my wedding. She also made wonderful sufganiyot, which were a special request, that were devoured by my guests. I would highly recommend MiniMelanie to anyone and will be using her again for future events!!

Back in July, I drew a picture of an elaborate cake that I wanted made for my company's 50th anniversary party. As an artist, I understand how difficult execution can be when coming from someone else's mind. Melanie KILLED it. Seriously, it was so beautiful and down to every single detail (gold flakes, gold dripping, ombre frosting, our logo's exact coloring, etc). Most importantly, it was as delicious as it was gorgeous! Melanie was easy to work with, receptive of any ideas or changes, and was punctual with delivery. I will definitely be calling her for future sweet services, and recommend her to anyone that wants a tasty, beautiful cake.

I came to pick up a cake, the owner was rude and started yelling when asked her to put the cake in one of her bags. Won't be ordering from here again since the owner was disrespectful.

Delicious chocolate truffles. I've tried them several times and never disappoints. Perfect for a wedding or family get-together. Customer service experience was smooth and the owner is a Food TV Chopped Champion.

I have ordered their truffles five times and I have never been disappointed. Their truffles are amazing, delicate and almost melts on contact. Their customer service is exceptional - very warm. It's definitely worth a try.

These are the most beautiful desserts in NYC and they are also the most delicious! Melanie is super kind, energetic, and helpful when it comes to picking the perfect cake or truffle for your special occasion. Her unparalleled pastry talent is portrayed in every single item that she bakes. I would recommend her desserts to anyone who is looking for the perfect sweet treat that has an extra special touch of originality, color, and creativity. Mini Melanie is now and forever my one-stop-shop for all things sweet in NYC! I especially recommend her Mini Funfetti Cakes -- they are always a huge crowd pleaser!

My husband and I ordered a table full of mini cakes and three 8 inch cakes for out December 2016 wedding. These cakes are absolutely beautiful and delicious, particularly the lemon. We were trying to work within budget, and they let us provide our own cake platters and stands so as to save $$. The staff came very early on the day of the wedding (such a relief when a million pieces have to come together at once) and set them up so that guests could see them as they arrive and let their mouths water during cocktail hour. We had a few other desserts from our caterer so we were lucky enough to bring a couple little ones home to enjoy in the following days. And I was already thinking about enjoying the mini cake that will be sent to us on our one year (what a sweet idea)!

They were a pleasure to work with and helped create the perfect 21st birthday cake for my daughter. Not only did it look great, it tasted delicious. They made the whole process from ordering to delivery easy. I for sure would use them again!

Melanie did a trio of mini cakes plus some cookies and other treats for our wedding - she came and set them up in a gorgeous display using some cake stands that my mom brought and wanted to use. The cakes and assorted treats were AMAZING. Everyone raved about how delicious all of the desserts were and were so excited when we had the leftovers at brunch the next day. I can say from personal experience Melanie's desserts are perfect to eat at any time of day.

Best customer service and they have the best tasting treats ever! The mini cakes and truffles are superb! They taste so fresh and moist! Will be ordering from them again! And their delivery is as promised! Fast and efficient!

What a team! As a busy caterer in NYC, pop up requests happen often, Mini is our go to partner for all of our wonderful cake truffles! She and her team are so accommodating, work with tight timing requests, and always deliver on time, with an amazing product! This company is a home run for any sweets, and their custom work and execution to our requests are simply stunning! I highly recommend Mini Melanie for all your sweet endings! 5 stars all the way! Thanks for being a great partner!

Minimelanie created for our party the most delicious and unusual deserts and party favors!!!!! The delivery of these sweets was on time, fresh and the perfect ending to our dinner. As guests walked out the door they took home delicious truffle jewels in artistic boxes to remember the event Minimelanie uses her imagination and transforms a birthday cake into a unique cake one of a kind custom fiiling icing and sweets on top All our invitees wanted to know "who made the desserts" Can't wait for minimelanie to make my daughter's wedding cake and favors

Melanie was by far the most amazing person I have ever worked with! Not only did she fully take my image for the cake and make it come alive, she answered so quickly to all of my emails, she was SO SO SO SWEET, and she was able to add to my order less than 24 hours in advance. The cake came out AMAZING and was loved by every single person who ate it and the truffles that we used as little party favors I am still getting texts about how good and cute they were. If you ever need a cake, Mini Melanie is the way to go! We will certainly be using her many more times THANKS AGAIN MELANIE!!!

I can't rave enough about Melanie and her delicious desserts! She created a beautiful two-tiered mini wedding cake, additional mini cakes for our guests, and made custom hang tags for our truffle favors that were a big hit. The initial tasting was so fun and personal--Melanie is so warm and made us feel really special. The hardest part was narrowing down to our favorite flavors, so we chose a few options so everyone at the wedding could have a taste. Everything from start to finish was flawless and delicious, and I can't wait to work with Melanie for future occasions!

I ordered some treats for a client event and they were absolutely delicious! The clients loved them and they were beautifully packaged. It is a perfect treat to bring to a meeting or to send as a gift.

I would give Mini Melanie 10 stars if I could! Not only are Melanie's cakes absolutely gorgeous but they were tailored to fit my dairy and gluten free needs as well! Throughout the whole process Melanie was always so helpful in offering ideas, answering any questions, and working with my fiancé to create a beautiful cake design. The day before the shower there was a slight mishap with the delivery man and Melanie hand delivered the cake to us at the end of her day to ensure we were happy. I know that Melanie's cakes will be a staple at any celebration or event in our future.

Fantastic company with a delicious, high quality product. We order from them all the time and they are a pleasure to work with and our clients are always highly impressed. I highly recommend this company - you will not be disappointed.

Love, love, love Mini Melanie! We've used them for events, treats, and gifts for clients and they are always a hit! Packaging and displays are on point, timely delivery, and they're always willing to go the extra mile to make our events are special. Did I mention how delicious everything on their menu is?

I cannot speak highly enough about Mini Melanie. We used her to make our wedding cake (and I have had many of her other treats for other reasons in the past). The cake she made for our wedding was absolutely delicious and had all of our guests raving. She was beyond professional in the entire process, and made it all seamless from our perspective. We even had some last-minute changes that she was more than happy to accommodate. We will use Melanie for other events in the future, and we cannot recommend her more highly for whatever event or reason you need. Special shoutout to the lemon berry cake which we had -- it's beyond compare!

Dear, Mini Melanie The Ruby jewel truffles are very delicious. Also the White Chocolate Funfetti party cake was enjoyed by all my dinner guests, and they wanted more!!! i enjoyed every single bite. i will place another order soon.

i met melanie after i'd learned i couldn't have wheat or dairy, so coming accross a baker w/ so much experience behind her felt like a joke. then she tells me she makes gluten and dairy free items also (and nut free if requested!). suddenly i could have it all again- cakes, cupcakes, cookies... and trust me, i did! we now have a standing monthy order from melanie for our office birthday shout outs and with each new flavor, design and idea she brings us all on a sweet journey. in addition, since mel is just as sweet as her baked goods, she makes sure we have a batch of regular sweets, a batch of gluten/dairy free, and a batch of nut free so that everyone can indulge. i was never much of a sweets person, but when you can no longer have them it's all you crave. melanie's bite size options are perfect for killing that craving w/o feeling like you're too full.

Amazing desserts! I ordered a birthday cake, and it was absolutely gorgeous. A must try and so different in style and taste from other NYC bakeries.

Incredibly delicious desserts! Absolutely stunning and so rich in flavor, and perfect for when you're craving something sweet! I would definitely recommend this bakery to anyone looking to try something new in NYC.

I have ordered from Mini Melanie a number of times. It is hard to choose my favorite. Is it theexpresso blondies or the whoopi pies? My kids loved the custom cakes I got for their birthday. I used Melanie to add a little surprise at each table of a charity function I was being honored at. She couldn't have been any nicer. Everyone raved. I plan on ordering from Mini Melanie for my corporate gifts this holiday season.
