so after burgers and coffee we wanted to hit up this new cupcake shop that people have been raving about, Hello Cupcake. it's located in Dupont Circle across from Krispy Kreme. I was excited to to try them out and what other DC cupcake spots had to offer.
The location was alittle hard to find but it's a few doors down from Big Hunt and Cafe Citron. It's Right at the neck of Conn. Ave where it hits the circle. The Decor was a nice retro feel, curvy wooden seats. blah blah blah....
the cupcakes. $3. icing stacked high upon hard muffin top. ape had a CHOCO, chocolate coconut. she complained about it be being dry on the inside. she didn't like it nor did i. i had a 24 carrott. the icing was super sweet and the cake was tasty but the hard muffin top really bothered me. we had a gingerbread the next day and that was actually pleasing.
overall, they charge too much for a hard, dry, cupcake that tries to cover their flaws with mile high icing. we definitely will not be going back. georgetown cupcakes +1!
