The sweet life in Georgetown



One of the things on my list to see was to visit Georgetown Cupcakes!  For those of you who may not be familiar with this Washington institution, DC Cupcakes was a little business started by two friends who baked cupcakes in their own home, which then grew into an empire including a TV series - Cupcake Wars.

There was a queue out the door when we arrived after a 20 minute walk from our accommodation, but it moved very quickly and there I was facing a beautiful case of cakes and the decision as to what variety of at least 20 that are baked fresh every day until sold.   For $3 each and a decent size too I chose two varieties to take back.   Here's some photos:

Choices, choices

Salted Caramel & Red Velvet


And the cakes are as good as they look!!   Till next time.
