Look, when we say America is pickle-crazed cupcakes, we mean it. We’re all addicted to the saline, herbaceous smack of pickles’ punch, from pickle ketchup to hot pickle Goldfish crackers to pickle soda, and food companies have been more than eager to satisfy our demands. The latest product to appeal to these tastes is a collaboration between Claussen and Baked By Melissa. This dessert firm pushes the boundaries of pickles’ versatility: a tart pickle cupcakes, which is available now while supplies last.
The Claussen x Baked by Melissa Pickle Cupcake, available today, July 10, in honor of National Pickle Month, is described in the press release as “a dill-icious pickle-infused cake and pickle buttercream icing complete with festive red and white sprinkles on top.”
The bite-sized goodies will be offered in six packs for $10.25 at Baked by Melissa locations (14 in New York City and Boston). You don’t have to live near a store to have a taste, though; customers can buy 25-packs online for $37 with nationwide shipping.
While there have been numerous high-profile pickle-tastic items in recent years, Claussen, a 150-year-old preserved pickle business, has been at the forefront of the trend, releasing some of the most unusual and high-profile brand relationships.
In 2023, the brand collaborated with the Spritz Society to offer a pickle-flavored sparkling wine cocktail as an April Fools’ Day joke. Still, customers appreciated the salty-sweet mix so much that the product remained available throughout the summer. This year, the beverage returned to markets in a larger 12-ounce can. Claussen also collaborated with Frankford Candy to create little gummy pickles that were pickle-shaped and not pickle-flavored.
This is not the first time pickles have made their way into desserts. In August 2023, the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival introduced a Pickle Milkshake at the Brew-Wing Booth, presumably overseen by the Muppets Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and his assistant Beaker. The shake (which was brilliant green) was topped with whipping cream and garnished with stems of fresh dill and peppercorns. The response was mixed, yet it sold well due to customer curiosity.
We’re confident that curiosity will drive sales of the new Claussen x Baked by Melissa Pickle Cupcakes—at least in part. Many customers may want to convert the neon green sweets into an Instagrammable moment, a TikTok taste test, or perhaps a prank on unsuspecting loved ones.
Whatever the cause, it’s safe to assume these cupcakes will be salty-sweet hits.
