I am craving cake. Not for any occasion, except to eat.

Where in the Alexandria area can I get some good cake? Not celebrating anything, but I don't eat cake very often, so I'd like to indulge in something delicious and well made. I tend to like Chocolate, coconut, lemon, berry. Where should I go for cake?

What about a cupcake? There's a cupcake place in old town although I didn't like it as much as Georgetown Cupcakes.

OP here - nice image pp. But I'm 130 lbs and workout 6 days a week, so I'm pretty ok with shoveling cake into my mouth once in a while! Life is all about balance

PP - I thought about cupcakes, but it's not the same. I'm craving a nice, big multi-layered, eat with a fork/spoon slice of cake (or small 6" cake)

Is there still a Firehook Bakery in Old Town?

If so, I'd go there.

Lavender Moon is the cupcake place in Old Town that gets the best reviews (there are a few cupcakeries in Old Town now). I don't know about cakes. Maybe Alexandria Pastry Shoppe (I think it's called?) in the Bradlee Shopping Center? I'm not a huge fan of Buzz's cakes/cupcakes.

Not too far away -- Heidelberg bakery sells amazing multi-layered cake by the slice and you can eat it there with a great cup of coffee. This is DS's idea of heaven, btw (minus the coffee).

+1 to both the Heidelberg bakery and Alexandria Pastry Shoppe. Both are amazing! I'd just go to whichever is closer to you.

Aw, I'm sorry you have such food issues that that seems like an appropriate image to post when someone asks where to buy cake. Hugs to you and I hope your recovery goes well.
