Recently, my younger sister Shelby celebrated her 20th birthday-Happy Birthday Pooh! Grabbing a dozen if not two dozen cupcakes to celebrate became a challenge and despite being a Critic, I still shell out for cupcakes. With the average cupcake hovering around $3 bucks or more, buying cupcakes for a simple soiree can get pricey. However after careful research I found some chic yet cheap cupcakes for your next shindig.
Here's the list:
Price: $2.75 ea. or $29 per dozen
Location: Bethesda or Georgetown, DC
Tip: Order online or call and pick-up to avoid lines. Bethesda is the best option with better parking. Also local delivery is available for a fee.
