Cupcakes for the Commander In Chief

Via Politico: "One-third of the entire Recovery Act is for tax relief for you," Obama told the crowd. "That's money in your pocket to buy cupcakes and other necessities of life."

How do you do?!

Hello blog world! This is a project I am embarking on assessing the growing cupcake craze in the greater DC metropolitan area. As the locations have continued to open my infatuation has gradually blossomed into full blown obsession. Some things to note as we get started:

• Monthly I will feature a local DC cupcakery. This assessment will include a review of their cupcakes, a short bio about the company, cost and where they rank on my list. In the coming days I will post a downloadable review sheet, so that you too can be a reviewer.

Additional Articles will include:

• Your Turn: Fun DIY cupcake recipes

• Schooling: A feature piece on a cupcake ingredient ranging from basic to eccentric.

• Did you know? : Cupcake fast facts

• A Cake?: Wedding, birthday, and special occasion cupcake cakes
  

• A work of Art: Cupcake images that take your breath away (not necessarily local)

• Happy Holidays: Seasonal Cupcakes

• The Cocktail Cupcake: self-explanatory

• In the News: Cupcakes… in the news
