Chocolate Satin Finishes First

Washington DC’s Best List Continues today with the selection of Baked + Wired. In direct competition with the television show-driven success of Georgetown Cupcakes, Baked + Wired is the red-headed stepchild to its more famous cousin.

There is no justification for the comparison. Baked + Wired beats Georgetown Cupcake every time.

This place is a cross between college-town cool and high end cupcake shop. They make treats of all sorts, well beyond the quickly becoming lame cupcake trend. Their pure elegant style in the presentation of their sweets is incredible.

And just inside to the right is a coffee house where you can snack on a slice of quiche or savoury pie before diving into their just desserts.

I’ll confess, my office is about 1 block from Georgetown Cupcakes and their daily tweets make it almost impossible to be rational about my judgement call here. But there is a sameness to Georgetown Cupcakes that there isn’t to Baked + Wired. And I say that even though I can get a free cupcake from Georgetown Cupcakes, Monday through Friday at the office, if I just lift my fat ass off my chair and walk the block to the sugar and flour factory that is Georgetown Cupcakes.
