Just in time for Valentine’s Day, New York cupcake shop Baked by Melissa is launching same-day cupcake delivery in Jersey City, Manhattan, and Hoboken.
Co-founded in 2009 by New Jersey native Melissa Ben-Ishay, Baked by Melissa is a cupcake phenomenon that’s been featured everywhere from Oprah to Time. The bakery makes tiny, bite-sized cupcakes in a variety of flavors that range from Cookies & Cream to their signature Tie-Dye Cupcake. Most of the cupcakes are less than 50 calories (which makes eating just one nearly impossible) and Baked by Melissa also offers vegan and gluten-free options.
Hoboken Girl reports that Baked by Melissa’s local-delivery is only available in zip codes 07302, 07310, and 07030. That roughly covers downtown Jersey City, Newport, and Hoboken. They also report that Baked by Melissa could open a storefront in Hoboken. Ben-Ishay currently resides in Hoboken and this could be their dry-run before they announce a new storefront.
To get your same-day cupcake delivery, just place your order online, choose same-day delivery at checkout, and voilà. Deliveries begin as early as 9am and run as late as 9pm. (You choose your delivery window during checkout). In terms of cost, a pack of 25 cupcakes costs $30. Same-day delivery adds an extra $9.95.
