Melissa Murphy is the owner of the Zagat-rated Sweet Melissa’s, OTBKB’s favorite patisserie and hang for latte and oatmeal with her sister and friends.
I loved Sweet Melissa’s even before it came to Park Slope; I used to meet a friend for tea there when it was just a tiny store on Court Street in Cobble Hill, which opened in 1998.
What a selection. What incredibly delicious and beautifully presented dessert items. That place just blows me away.
Recently, Murphy competed in the Food Network Challenge: “Edible
Ornaments” which was filmed at The Grove Park Inn Resort & Spa in Asheville, North Carolina. The resulting show will premiere
at 8 p.m. Nov. 25 on the Food Network.
Murphy was one of four chefs/designers selected from around the county to decorate an 8-foot holiday tree with“Edible Ornaments.”
The contest consisted of three categories: Garlands, Ornaments and Tree Toppers. All had to reflect the show’s theme: Holiday Memories."
Let’s all root for Sweet Melissa’s and watch the show (while eating a Sweet Melissa Pommier or Madeleine) on November 25th (that’s the Sunday after Thanksgiving).
