Best cupcakes
The Washington Post Staff | Updated 10/19/2009
Tiny, indulgent and cute as a button, cupcakes have all the makings of a perfect sweet treat.
Baked & Wired
Washington, DC
The bubble-gum pink strawberry cupcake is our favorite. Wash it down with a latte in the edgy-cool cafe space.
Hello Cupcake
Washington, DC
Hello Cupcake gets points for its Metro-accessibility, cheery storefront and inventive flavor combinations.
Best Buns Bread Co.
Arlington, VA
There's nothing "cup" about the softball-sized cakes at Best Buns. Opt for one with the meltingly good cream cheese icing.
Red Velvet Cupcakery
Washington, DC
Pastry chef David Guas has lent his talents to the menu at this Penn Quarter shop.
