"This cute kosher bakery by the Smithsonian Zoo is offering Hanukkah treats like Menorah jumbo pops ($3.40) and a Chanukah cake pop gift box. They also have festive black-and-white Menorah cookie (topped with vanilla icing on one side and rich chocolate on the other) for $6.85. There’s also wooden challah boards, menorahs, and dreidels." - Tierney Plumb
"Baked by Yael serves nut-free and kosher baked goods right across the street from the entrance to the zoo. Their selection includes color and panda-themed cake pops, as well as bagels and hamantaschen. Distance from zoo: Just 105 feet." - Tierney Plumb
"This kosher bakery by the zoo is offering menorah cake pops (available in gluten-free and vegan options) again this year. New this year are menorah black-and-white cookies, a Jewish deli staple. Classic baked goods, like rugelach, babka, and challah are also available for pre-order and at the Cleveland Park location. And once again, the owner Yael’s father Rafi — a woodcrafter — will be selling handcrafted dreidel and menorahs." - Evan Caplan
"This beloved kosher bakery by the Smithsonian Zoo is offering Hanukkah treats like Menorah jumbo pops and a Chanukah gift box. They also have rugelach made with an Israeli family recipe, challah (subscriptions), and wooden challah boards and personalized menorahs handcrafted by the owner’s father." - Tierney Plumb
"As an eight-year-old D.C. bakery across the street from the zoo entrance, Baked by Yael reported selling dozens of its popular panda cake pops on the day the pandas were driven to Dulles to begin their long flight; the shop is considering sunsetting its “jumbo” panda pops but—per an employee—will 'likely stay around' depending on demand, and patrons can place orders online or buy the vegan treats in-store while they're available." - Tierney Plumb
