What do you recommend at this one?

Weve had good luck at Wagshals for bakery cakes.

Not many of the places named here have layer cakes, is there anywhere in NW for a good cake?

Banana split and the mango cheesecake in Kafe Leopold.
Alfajores in El Patio if they are fresh.

Pâtisserie poupon has lovely desserts.

Rose Avenue Bakery in Woodley Park. Unique Asian-influenced/flavors.

I’m going to first and foremost plug Breads Unlimited in Bethesda - small family owned bakery in the Bradley Road Shopping Center - fantastic bakery and lovely family. Great cookies (deli/tea cookies), breads, donuts, babkas, pound cakes, and more.

We also love Fresh Baguette in Bethesda - in particular the tarte normande is fantastic.

Both of these places have savory items, too. Love them!

Agree with tout de sweet or boulangerie Christophe in bethesda. Praline also good.

Also, as a less “fancy” choice — just go to Pollo Rico and get a bunch of tres leches cakes and the cookies filled with dulce de leche. Super delicious.

Or you could probably get a bunch of baklavas or similar from Lebanese taverna or moby dick.

We like Tatte. We are not fancy - I have never heard of the other places.

Tour de sweet in Bethesda.

Au Je Ne Sais Quoi - near Dupont Circle. Interesting and delicious.

Bread Furst has cake, brownies, cookies, sometimes pie!

Looking for some interesting desserts to purchase for a small group. Wanted to try something from Saku Saku Flakerie but it’s too late to order. We usually go with Baked & Wired but want to change it up if possible! Somewhere in NW DC or close-in Bethesda. . .
