THE SCOOP:

Allison: One of the desserts tasted too much like avocados for me.
Carina: Her stuff is delicious, but I still prefer a baked item. But for raw and vegan foods, Melissa makes the best.
Jyl: The key lime pie. I expected it to taste exactly like key lime pie.
Quinn: I’m not a fan of the strawberry pie.
Vanessa: Wish the prices for the cakes/pies were a bit less. The macaroons are priced perfectly.

QUESTION

Would you visit again?

THE SCOOP:

Allison: Yes! Yummy.
Carina: I have already! I’ll purchase Raw Melissa for my vegan and raw foods friends. It’s the perfect treat to say I’m Thinking of You while being cognizant of their dietary lifestyles.
Jyl: For macaroons, yes. Otherwise, I’ll stick with my non-vegan ways!
Quinn: Absolutely! I’m completely addicted, now!
Vanessa: I would purchase and DO purchase her treats everytime I go into Blue Lemon or Good Earth, we love them at our house. We are quite addicted but I don’t feel guilty because they are raw, vegan and all organic.
