Georgetown Cupcake

3301 M St NW, Washington, DC. $3 for a cupcake. It’s no secret that I’m not a huge fan of cupcakes. To me, cupcakes are just a fad—an excuse for innumerable little bakeries to charge exorbitant prices for mini-cakes that are both small in size and flavor.

Best Bakery in DC. 1645 Wisconsin Avenue Northwest, Washington, DC 20007. I was really craving a true French-style pastry the other day—something like a croissant or a mini-tart/cake.

Baked and Wired is probably the coolest, hippest bakery in the area, catering largely to a younger...

Furin’s of Georgetown

2805 M Street Northwest, Washington, DC 20007-3712. If there’s one thing you can find in the Georgetown area of DC, it’s a decent bakery. And among those bakeries, there’s none more historic than Furin’s, a community staple that’s been around for over 26 years! During that whole time, moreover, it’s always been run by...
