Get the Raspberry chocolate chip crunch, red velvet, salted caramel and Vanilla/Chocolate. Check their Twitter acct for the secret flavor of the day to get 1/100 to give away.
- Chad HornerFebruary 19, 2015Delicious cupcakes! I tried a few, and Peanut Butter Fudge was my favorite. The frostings here are rich - the PB frosting has a pure PB flavor - but not too sugary, which you often find with cupcakes.
Serious EatsApril 19, 2013Don't miss the Peanut Butter Fudge, a dense chocolate cupcake made with Valrhona chocolate. At the center is a supple fudge core that's reason enough alone to eat this cupcake.
Korey GirdnerApril 22, 2017Love these little gems! 😛💕🎂also, love that their fondant is chewy - beware, I've almost never made it home with the frosting in tact. Not sure if it melts or packaging but it can be frustrating.
Some of the best cupcakes in Manhattan. Perfect flavors and proportions; that frosting WILL make you moan.
Matthew SpectorJanuary 3, 2015Seasonal cupcakes and brilliant flavor combinations make this the top cupcake in Manhattan by far. Do the chocolate squared - and don't miss daily secret flavor giveaways (tips on their Twitter!)
Rebecca MaldonadoAugust 13, 2016Next time we are getting a dozen! Delicious! Red velvet cupcake was soft, moist, chocolate-y with a wonderful crram cheese frosting.
Jessica de OliveiraDecember 15, 2015I hate to say it but these truly are the best cupcakes in the city. Go for the classic red velvet as the frosting is really cream cheese and not just vanilla.
The Peanut Butter Fudge cupcake has a "secret" liquid fudge center. To Die For. I tried the Salted Caramel cupcake today and it was so good it nearly brought tears to my eyes. <3
Cupcakes Take The CakeFebruary 20, 2012The Black and White Cupcake, The Strawberry and The Peanut Butter Fudge are must haves. They have lots of flavors that rotate daily, and there are some gluten-free cupcakes as well.
Sorry to say, but DC's most famous cupcake shop has got NYC's (Magnolia Bakery) beat by a mile. Check the facebook for specials, or just get any of the ones on the menu. Flavors change daily.
Barney SimonJuly 17, 2015We've cued at the original location: the best cupcakes we've had. I did online ordering. After cupcakes, they impressed me w/ the message card. It was large, attractive, and clearly printed.
Try a strawberry, key lime, peanut butter fudge, lemon berry, lemon blossom, and milk chocolate birthday. Also, check out the Georgetown Cupcake fb/twitter for the free "secret" cupcake of the day.
Theresa SummaAugust 3, 2012The gluten free Lava Cake is ridiculously delicious, even compared to gluteny cupcakes. Best GF treat I've found. For GF folks in town or just in the area, you MUST.
LaurenJune 21, 2014believe the hype, sort of. the vanilla birthday was very good. favorite cupcake in the city is still from Sugar Sweet Sunshine on Rivington St.
Sharon TsaoMarch 4, 2016Really good cupcakes :) one of the best ones i've had. The cream on the coffee, cookie, cream is really soft and fluffy!
Anthony ChoulouteMarch 10, 2015Follow Georgetown Cupcake on Twitter to learn about the free flavor of day. Go to your local store, ask for the cupcake by name, and enjoy your free treat.
Danae SimmonsDecember 14, 2014The actual cupcake in the white birthday cake cupcake was delicious and moist with a nice spice to it which complimented the whipped buttercream frosting wonderfully.
Rachel SmithFebruary 11, 2016Fav in the city the cake itself is so good and frosting not too sweet! Didn't like the ganache frosting though, original better
You can't go wrong any selection. But if you must have one, oh the limitation, Red Velvet, Coconut, Carrot... my bad this is not a flavor - it's 3 different cakes. Flavor-town in you mouth
Amber MollerSeptember 25, 2013best frosting I have ever tasted! not too sweet & perfectly scrumptious. I got the vanilla birthday cupcake. All about the white on white!
Make sure to stop in on Wednesday or Friday for the chocolate hazelnut. You won't regret it!
Perfect cupcake to frosting ratio, perfectly baked cupcake that has just the right amount of bite. Best cupcake in NYC!
Leah AndersonJune 8, 2017One of the best red velvet cupcakes! Definitely better than Magnolia's. Highly recommend. This place is the real deal!
Lucretia BennettJune 22, 2014Yummy, wonderful cupcake. Got a chocolate with vanilla icing and a little glass of milk. Perfect!
Dana RosaSeptember 7, 2015Overcrowded, but good cupcakes. Chocolate & Vanilla, Vanilla & Chocolate, Vanilla^2 are all delicious, but it's hard to go wrong.
MaddieJune 13, 2012frosting is delicious! if you're a fan, this is definitely a place you don't want to miss! would go back, a million times. I give it two thumbs up

Honghui YuAugust 4, 2015They have a lavender Earl Grey cupcake here... It's one of the best cupcakes I've ever tasted- Eric HinmanMay 17, 2012Their cupcakes are life changing. Try the carrot cake & red velvet. They melt in your mouth (and in your hand if you're not careful).

I'm an unpretentious cupcake aficionado and rarely have any complaints about my favorite dessert. But where's the creme in this Boston Creme cupcake? Womp
Kanya RhedrickAugust 24, 2018The red velvet is great but if you are lucky enough to get a strawberry they are amazing.- estherSeptember 3, 2014Blueberry cheesecake cupcake was yummy. Rather than the cake, the frosting is good (red velvet too)
