My co-workers and I have probably tried 100+ cupcakes (sometimes the same) here solely because they rotate the free ones daily, and we've been in this office space for going on 3 years. They come out with some crazy flavors.
If you want to sort by icing, cupcakes come in two forms: high fluffy frosting (probably a type of buttercream) and ganache (flat, dense chocolate layer). They have a good frosting to cake ratio, but even then I don't normally finish the frosting. I never finish the fondant topping.
My favorites include:
* Anything cheesecake (at this point, it's just an adorable, Instagram worthy cheesecake and not even a cupcake, but it's honestly the best pairing, there's actual Graham cracker crust)
* Earl grey lavender cupcake (lightly scented)
* Chocolate dipped
* Apple caramel
* Lemon lime (slightly tart)
There's a few parallel parking spots in front. If you don't want to deal with it, you can brave the parking deck (validated 2 hours), but you have to dodge the super fast valet drivers from capital grille, the huge concrete pillars, and the tight spacing overall. But hey, the cupcake almost evens out considering you would've had to pay $3 for parking
Or you can do what I do. 100 free secret flavor cupcakes available daily. Go to fridge cam on http://www.tlc.com/tv-shows/dc-cupcakes/cupcake-cam/. If it's a weekday, you'll need to go early afternoon to avoid the office workers (me) and kids (Atlanta international School).
