Nice cupcakes that don't cost $50+ per dozen??

Anonymous
Does this exist in DC anywhere besides grocery store bakeries? Maybe it's a unicorn, but I just was hoping to find a place to get a dozen assorted cupcakes (they don't have to be THAT fancy, just better than a Giant bakery) and not blow more than $50-60 dollars in the process. Is that a pipe dream? Willing to travel to close in PG for options, too.

I have gotten custom cupcakes here for $36 per dozen. I feel like $3 per cupcake is pretty standard at anywhere but the grocery store.

We order from Sweet Teensy - great cupcakes and her other baked goods are amazing, too. I can't keep the coffee cake in my house it is so good.

I was going to say Lavender Moon Cupcakery in Old Town, but it looks like they're temporarily closed for renovations. But once they reopen their cupcakes are divine and last time I went were $3/each, so easily under $60 for a dozen.

I love their cupcakes, and they deliver too.

I’m going to go out on a limb and recommend Bakeshop in Arlington. They’re $3.25 a piece and if you buy 5 you get one free so they’re well within your budget. If you’re willing to drive to PG County it might not be too much more inconvenient to hop on 395 and head to VA?

Good question. I paid $20 for 1/2 dozen Georgetown Cupcakes and I found them too sweet and not that good.

Georgetown Cupcake is $42 and you can customize the decoration with letters, shapes, numbers. I find them to be delicious.

My MIL gets some cupcakes from Giant from behind the bakery glass that are pretty tasty too - not prepackaged but sold individually.
