Part 1: Los Angeles, CA As a dessert lover, I had my mind set on trying out varieties of sweets as much as I can during my recent vacation to the US. On top of my list is none other than Katherine and Sophie’s Georgetown Cupcake. I’ve been watching episodes of their show (TLC’s DC Cupcakes) when I can that’s why I was so happy when my friend told me one day she is taking me to their branch in LA since we were in the area doing some therapy session (make up retail therapy shopping to be specific LOL!). As soon as I set foot inside the famous cupcakery, I was no doubt in CUPCAKE HEAVEN. Seeing different flavors of the cupcakes they offer all lined up in cute stands made me want to live there! It was a lovely sight to see and exactly how I had imagined it to be. My other friend remembered about asking for the Secret Cupcake of the Day at the checkout counter, the crew gladly gave away 3 free Chocolate Ganache cupcakes to me and my other 2 friends. I wanted to order 1 cupcake each flavor but managed to control myself and limited it to 3 since I had an extra free one already and just because I knew then that I still had other places to try out as well. The other flavors I got were: Red Velvet (top seller), Key Lime, Blueberry Cheesecake. And YES, each cupcake was incredibly delicious! They were so moist and the sweetness was just oh so right! By the way, they have Vegan and Gluten-Free choices of cupcake everyday to cater to those who require these dietary needs. I mean how awesome is that? :) *Georgetown Cupcake LA is located in 143 S. Robertson Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 9048 Part 2: Washington, DC Another state I visited was Washington, DC. Well it’s a no-brainer, it was a MUST to go and visit the Main Branch and get to experience being on the queue of people eager to get one of those lovely pink boxes of cupcakes. My friends and I wanted to devour the cupcakes right away in the shop but unfortunately there were only around 4 small tables all occupied and others also waiting in line to sit down so we decided to just eat it once we go back to their place. Of course I didn’t forget to ask again for the Secret Cupcake of the Day which was Baby Blue (On Vanilla)! I got to try out other flavors that looked interesting since my friends decided to get a dozen this time. Aside from the usual Red Velvet, Chocolate Ganache, and Blueberry Cheesecake, we got Salted Caramel, Vegan Carrot, Butterscotch Waffle Cone. None of these flavors have disappointed me, each cupcake was truly made to perfection. Hands down, it is one of the best if not the best I ever had so far! *Georgetown Cupcake DC is located in 3301 M Street NW (corner of 33 rd & M) Washington, DC.

I look forward to more cupcake adventures with you guys when I go back to the US!
Cheers, NING
