Fantastic cupcakes . Prefer their chocolate and flavored cakes (e.g. Flourless Chocolate , Blood Orange Dreamsicle , Lavendar Lemon Chiffon, etc.) to any vanilla ones. Vanilla Vanilla fell flat to me.

These cupcakes are Ahh-maa-zing!!! The cake itself is moist and bursting with flavor. The frosting (which is great too) kinda becomes an afterthought almost. Got a half dozen sampler box.

You can't go wrong ordering any cupcake . It will likely be the best you've ever had. I can't wait to come back again next week. Closed Mon and Tues, open Wed-Sun.

The lemon chiffon and turtle cupcakes are probably my two favorites. The caramel cream cheese frosting on the turtle cupcake is incredible.

Mike Reid

My new fave cupcake spot. The CAKE is rich and bursting with flavor AND THEN topped with great frosting .....unlike most which are average tasting (at best) with good frosting .

Rosie Henderson

Flavors change frequently but the cupcakes are always delicious. Quaint place to enjoy a sweet treat

Maggie MacG

How did I not know this place was here? The icing is superb and the cupcakes are dense and cakey. Yum!

J Alnidawi

The cupcakes are amazing. An experience for your tastebuds and soul. The best cupcakes I've ever had.

Bloomingdale's

They’ve got a whole sweet-and-savory thing going on, with flavors like vanilla bean lemon curd , peach and basil , and buttermilk Mexican chocolate . But move fast – they close when they sell out.

Vanessa French

By far the BEST place for cupcakes in the DC area. Fresh and unique combo flavors that leave you in cupcake heaven.

Jenn Z

Lavender chiffon , orange dreamsicle , almond flour less seasalt takes the (cup)cake!

Reagan Barbosa

I've been to many cupcakeries, and I'm pretty sure this is the best cupcake frosting I've ever had. Yum.

The Bozzuto Group

Lavender Moon has achieved the impossible by creating the perfect gluten-free cupcake . Ask for the flourless chocolate almond cupcake with sea salt !

Chris Merkel

Nice quality cake to the cupcakes here—a detail many places forget in focusing just on the toppings—it's moist, not dry, and full of flavour.

Kate K

Better than any cupcake place I've been to in the DC metro area. Favorite flavors = Cherry Chocolate Pinot Noir or Blood Orange Dreamsicle .

Liz D.

The strawberry champagne cupcake is delicious, as is the lemon lavendar!

Lexi D

most definitely the best cupcakes in DC! the lemon lavender chiffon is spectacular!

aro

go for the blood orange dreamsicle and s'mores cupcakes . it's amazing how nuanced the textures and flavors are for each different cupcake ! delicious!

Audrey A

Their cream cheese frosting is quite rich, but it balanced well in their lemon blackberry cupcake .

Andrea Andrejco

This chocoholic really loved the Triple Belgian Chocolate !

Nina DeJesus

You MUST try the Flourless Chocolate with Sea Salt & Almonds cupcake — it'll be the best cupcake you'll ever have.

Tatyana Fisher

Chocolate lavender cupcakes are to die for!

Paula Davis

Flourless chocolate

Ray Courchene

Chocolate love it!

Sonora Bostian

The cherry chocolate Pinot noir cupcake will make you believe in God

Sophia H

Triple Belgian chocolate = OMG. Devil's food PB is delicious too. I've noticed that this place has great frostings but not very fresh cake . Go to Sprinkles Cupcakes for the freshest cake ever.

Yordanos BT

It was kinda dry. I'd skip it moving forward.

Dan Collins

Hummingbird FTW!

Cassel Kroll

Amy Sandoval

Red velvet is yummy!

Chad Smith

Nom nom nom

James O

Its ok.....there are so many other places that are much better, particularly down South!

Marla Young

I did not like the gluten free cupcake . It was very dry.

Amy Pearce

pumpkin & chocolate cupcake ....YUM!

B

Frosting is divine but cake leaves much to be desired.

Madame Meow

Life will be complete when you eat a triple Belgian chocolate cupcake .

Ilivlyfe

Cups cakes are dry I guess I'll stick to Georgetown cakes .

anjul d

Pretty cupcakes and cute place, but no vegan cupcakes , atleast today.

Camilla C

No coffee nor tea here... Just cupcakes . Some yummy flavors!

Pauline Lewis

Orange dreamsicle delight!

Jesse Seagroves

Too much frosting for my liking.
