- I got the job at Georgetown Cupcake! More on that later...
- Marie Claire is crazy, but it's awesome. It's good to always be busy, which we are. My eating habits are all out of wack (I mean, lunch at 5 pm?)
- School is school... I mean- I'm keeping up and just ready for Spring Break already.
- I'm heading home next weekend- I'm so thrilled to have a weekend of relaxation and chilling. :)
- Oh, and in case you didn't get the Musical Theater reference- it is "Priscilla: Queen of the Desert" in which there are dancing cupcakes surrounding Will Swenson. Appropriate, no? (I did go back this month and official was introduced to Nick Adams- so sweet and nice!)
A bit about Georgetown Cupcake- I love it there. The atmosphere is so fun and everyone is so happy to get cupcakes. Many don't even make it out the door! ;)
I've tried quite a few cupcakes, so I figured I'd do a review of some of them:
Vanilla Squared: Vanilla cake with a cream cheese frosting- my go to cupcake. My grandma always bakes cupcakes for our birthdays and uses a cream cheese frosting, so I always pick this frosting when I have a choice. The cake is nice and moist and the icing isn't too sweet.
Vanilla Birthday: Vanilla cake with Buttercream icing and of course, sprinkles. This seems to be a very popular one, but I like our cream cheese better than our buttercream. It's a little too sweet for me, but my sister likes it better than our Vanilla Squared.
Red Velvet: A Classic. It has my perfect cream cheese frosting, so it's a winner. The little bit of chocolate in the red cake is just a perfect amount. We sell a crazy amount of these every day- so a best seller!
Salted Caramel: My second favorite! And only on Tuesdays and Saturdays. There isn't a ton of salt, but it's a good amount. It doesn't over power the caramel. Maybe a little bit on top would make it perfect. I like the caramel star on top of the icing.
These are the only ones I've tried so far- I'm not a big fan of chocolate cake, but I figure I have to try them eventually. Too bad I missed January's flavor of the month of s'mores! I also want to try the Mint Chocolate one to compare it to mint cookies & cream and cinnamon.
Come visit me in the Georgetown Cupcake in SoHo at 111 Mercer Street- or one of their two locations in Washington, DC. Or the final option is shipping- they do it nation wide and they come shipped perfectly- we've ordered from them 3 or 4 times and they've always been perfect. But nothing beats a fresh cupcake! :)
Enjoy your evening everyone! <3
