Dorinda Medley clapped back at Melissa Gorga after seeing that the Real Housewives of New Jersey star had accused her of failing to say “thank you” for a shipment of her sprinkle cookies, Sprinkle by MG, at Bravo Fan Fest over the weekend in Charleston, South Carolina.
After a clip of Melissa, 47, naming the 61-year-old Real Housewives of New York City alum was shared on TikTok on October 27, Dorinda fired back at Melissa, claiming that Melissa initially failed to send the cookies to her.
“You sent your sprinkle cookies to many celebrities … Name someone you sent them to that didn’t thank you,” moderator Daryn Carp told Melissa at a panel event.
“I actually know this answer: Dorinda,” Melissa replied. “I love Dorinda. But she thanked me later because I sent her a new box. Maybe she didn’t get them.”
In response to the video, however, Dorinda said that she reached out to Melissa to correct her address.
“If you remember correctly you didn’t send them to me so I contacted you and you sent them to the right address and did a video,” Dorinda wrote in a comment.
As RHONJ fans will recall, Melissa launched her cookie line in late 2024, years after she and her sister-in-law, Teresa Giudice, 54, infamously feuded over Melissa’s decision to bring sprinkle cookies to Teresa’s house for the holidays, rather than Teresa’s favorite cookies, pignolis, which prompted Teresa to toss Melissa’s cookies in the trash.
“Introducing Sprinkle by MG!” Melissa wrote on Instagram on December 9, along with a series of promotional photos of her new brand. “My passion for sprinkle cookies is finally available for you! With [Sprinkle by MG] The ultimate sprinkle butter cookie that’s as chic as it is delicious! Trust me… you will NOT want to throw these in the garbage.”
“Don’t miss out—order now and make your celebrations even sweeter! Head to www.sprinklebymg.com and grab yours in time for the Holidays,” she added.

Several months later, after adding a sprinkle coffee cake to the line, it was revealed that Sprinkle by MG had brought in $500,000 in just three months.
“I am still very grateful just over how everyone has just embraced the whole sprinkle cookie line and Let’s Sprinkle, the whole company, in general. People really go nuts for it. And they make great gifts,” Melissa told Decider at the time. “Everyone’s gifting them. And they’re putting the cutest messages you have ever seen. They’ll be like, ‘Congratulations on your baby girl. I know she’s definitely not gonna throw these in the garbage. She’s gonna grow up to love sprinkle cookies.’ The cutest, fun messages. So it’s a feel-good brand. And it’s fun and it’s delicious.”
