Sprinkles Georgetown

My daughter and I made the trip to Georgetown specifically to visit Sprinkles. Unfortunately the cupcakes fell short of the hype. The staff was absolutely amazing and super friendly. That was the only good thing. The cupcakes were dry and the frosting tasted oily on the red velvet. There was an unpleasant aftertaste from the candy apple. For the price of the cupcakes, our expectations were high, just wish the taste measured up.

I have such a sweet tooth, and love all things sweet treats. So trust me when I say sprinkles is amazing! I’ve had most of their flavors, I love to try the special edition ones they come out with during holidays. My all time favorite is the triple cinnamon. This location is very small but has a cute little window nook to sit and eat at. The employees have always been friendly! My go-to spot for a cupcake in Georgetown.

It was my sister’s birthday so we were going around getting her freebies! We end up purchasing cupcakes as well. It’s cute spot but I recommend fixing that heavy door. But we were greeted and helped as soon as we walked in. Everything smelled, look and tastes delicious!

I certainly seem to be in a minority with this opinion, but I actually thought the cupcakes I got from this place were kinda gross 😭I usually go to Georgetown Cupcakes to satisfy my sweet tooth, but I'd always been curious about Sprinkles, so finally decided to give them a try. I ordered a red velvet, and a salted caramel. They both came with the circular little edible decoration on the top... guys, the decoration tasted VILE. Like cough syrup. I had to spit them out. The frosting on both cupcakes had an unpleasant aftertaste that reminded me of plastic. The cake part was bland and kind of bitter. And the worst part? I erroneously assumed that since the cupcakes were about twice as expensive as the ones from Georgetown Cupcakes, that they must also be larger. Well, they were roughly the same size. I wasted 13ish bucks on 2 tiny yucky cupcakes. Definitely won't order from here again.

Happened to walk past the shop and decided to purchase 4 cupcakes as a birthday treat. We were the only people in the shop and we saw only one employee. We ordered through the computer kiosk which seemed ridiculous given that the sole employee was just standing there smiling at us. Selected 4 different cupcakes and can honestly say each flavor was equally dry, bland and unappetizing. The chocolate marshmallow flavor crumbled all over the place and maybe contained a 1/2 tsp of marshmallow cream in the middle. The dark chocolate was even more dry. The banana flavor reminded us of grocery store banana bread. The only saving grace was the cinnamon frosting on the cinnamon cupcake but the yellow cake upon which it rested was equally dry and oddly lumpy. A complete fail. Not sure how this chain ever made it to the big time. Pretty but tasteless, overpriced and small cupcakes.

I usually go to Sprinkles and the cupcakes are delicious! My last visit was this past Thursday (June 22nd), and the ladies working at the front counter were very kind and friendly. One lady even shared with me how to care for the cupcakes and gave me a cupcake care card with instructions on it. Thank you ladies for the smiles, kindness, and wonderful customer service! :)

Came here during a trip to DC. We made a special point to visit because it’s famous and it was good but you’ve got to really really love cupcakes to make it worth it because cupcakes for about seven dollars each is more on the pricey side obviously. The taste of the cupcakes we tried we were good and well-made, but as we’re not that into cupcakes I can’t say if this is recommended for most.

Stopped in while walking around Georgetown and got the last 2 cupcakes! They were red velvet and were good!. And we didn’t have to wait in line forever like the other place. I actually remember seeing Sprinkles on the tv show Shark Tank, And happy to still see them in business!.

My fav cupcake shop ever! Super cute and small in Georgetown, Sprinkles is a cute takeout spit for amazing desserts! Love the vegan red velvet cupcake especially since Im lactose intolerant! But the cake is moist, fluffy, and the frosting is delish!

I've been a longtime fan of Sprinkles cupcakes because I grew up in the LA area and had their cupcakes often. I was craving them now that I live in DC, so I ordered some. And I was so disappointed. I think they've gotten smaller, but they were still so expensive - another classic case of shrink-flation. Prices stay the same, but the product isn't as high-quality or you receive less quantity. Plus, I was so excited to try the seasonal gingerbread cupcake. But when I got it it was sooo dry. And I liked the crust on the bottom, but it fell apart too easily and was so crumbly and dry. The wrapper was a nightmare to peel off because it kept sticking to the cupcake and tearing. The cupcake was clearly not made well. This cannot be the same Sprinkles cupcakes I fell in love with throughout my adolescence. I'm sad lowkey...

I kept getting targeted ads for these Nguyen Coffee Supply coffee cupcakes. I love Vietnamese coffee and cupcakes, so of course, I gave in. 5/5 coffee cupcakes - wow, I still think about these. I really should've ordered all coffee cupcakes. I couldn't get enough of the coffee buttercream. It paired so well with the coffee cake and condensed milk buttercream filling. I hope they collab again soon because I need more! 3/5 Strawberry Shortcake - ok cupcake. The cake was a little dry. 4/5 Dark Chocolate - good dark chocolate flavor. Paired well with my Vietnamese iced coffee lol.

I honestly tried Sprinkles out because I am a huge fan of Cupcake Wars and recently also saw those viral videos of people at Sprinkle kiosks at airports that sing the Sprinkles jingle very loudly to them when they dispense the cupcakes. While the song (unfortunately for us but not the workers) doesn't play when you go in person, the cupcakes are great. They are a good sized, and there is a good selection. We tried the strawberry, chocolate, and red velvet, but we also went at the end of the day when they were mostly sold out, so I recommend going when all the options are out! Def would grab another one again.

It was my sister's birthday so we were going around getting her freebies! We end up purchasing cupcakes as well. It's cute spot but I recommend fixing that heavy door. But we were greeted and helped as soon as we walked in. Everything smelled, look and tastes delicious!

Delicious but kinda pricey for cupcakes. Convenient ordering on a touch screen tablet or at the register. Store a bit small.

Brought these cupcakes to a party and enjoyed the extra touch of their holiday packaging. The cupcakes were not very sweet - a compliment. However $88 for 12 cupcakes - a slight markup from their usual prices was just a bit of a price shock for me. I get it's a lucky number.

Sprinkles is one of the better cupcake places I have tried, especially in the Georgetown area. However, I have definitely had better, which is why I would give them 4/5 stars. I ordered the salty caramel, strawberry, vanilla milk chocolate, and red velvet cupcakes. I thought all of those flavors were good, but all of them were just a tad dry, but the frosting was very tasty and paired nicely with the cupcake. However, some of the frosting was a little bit crusty, which I didn't love. My favorite of them was probably the vanilla milk chocolate, and I liked the addition of the sprinkles for texture. The service has become more automated, with your orders being placed over a touch screen. And the shop is pretty small, with there being extremely limited seating (maybe enough for ten people or less). I would say this is one of the best cupcake places in Georgetown that I have tried and I would probably return again, but it is definitely not my favorite cake place.

What's happened to Sprinkles? This business isn't what it used to be. Isn't that what old people always say? And now, as an old person, I am saying it. Sprinkles has fallen from what it used to be. And I was there 13 years ago on opening day when Candace and the whole Cupcake Wars crew was there. Does Candace know what this store looks like? The missing table.. I had to peer through the window to see if they were even open. Business overall must be bad because they closed their Penn Station (NYC) cupcake ATM which is where I usually got my June birthday cupcake because I visit NYC every June for my birthday. But ok, I'll go to the Georgetown location. I went in to get my birthday cupcake told them I'd be having it there instead of to-go. It was put in a little brown paper bag. I asked do you have plates? No. NO PLATES? How do you not have plates anymore. A PAPER PLATE. That's apparently asking too much. I asked if they had a cup for water. No cup for water. What?? I asked do you at least have a fork? They had a fork - and by the way not the old ones they used to have that were made out of recycled material and said Sprinkles on them. It was just a basic plastic fork but hey I'm not complaining because at least they had that. I had my birthday cupcake but the whole experience left me with ick what is this anymore and I don't think even for a free cupcake I'd go back.

The shop is cute and small...only 2 tables. We grabbed a couple to share: lemon blueberry and strawberry. You self order at the kiosk and the cupcakes came out fast...very friendly service. The cupcakes were okay, average in my opinion, but nicely presented. The lemon was a tad dry, the strawberry moist. The frostings were both smooth but a little bit sweet for my personal taste. Overall a nice snack.

This cupcake shop offers a charming experience with its friendly kiosk. The variety of flavors is commendable, catering to diverse preferences and offering something for everyone. However, the pricing seems slightly steep considering the average taste quality. Overall, it's a pleasant stop for a quick treat, but the cupcakes might not leave a lasting impression.

These cupcakes look better than they taste. The texture of the cake part is fluffy, and the frosting texture is fine too, maybe a little crunchy on the edges, which you may or may not like. However, most of the flavors aren't there in my opinion. The chocolate cake base (for the dark chocolate and s'mores flavors) was so light that I'm not sure I could identify it as chocolate if I had my eyes closed--more like a box mix you'd make for a kid's birthday than the distinct flavor I'd hope for from $5/cupcake. All the chocolate flavor in the s'mores cupcake was from the ganache center, and all the chocolate flavor in the dark chocolate cupcake was from the chocolate sprinkles, not even the frosting. The sprinkle cupcake, which is supposed to have a birthday cake base, tasted strongly of baking soda more than anything else. The red velvet cupcake nailed the named flavor the most. The cake base was actually tangy like proper red velvet should be, not just mild cocoa. It's the only flavor I might come back for. Since there's so little seating, this location can't serve as a cute cafe to hang out in, which would've helped justify the price. As it is, the main situation I would recommend Sprinkles is if you want to get an aesthetic gift for someone who likes pretty things and doesn't have a discerning palate. Even in that case, while the box is cute, you have to be careful holding it. It's all folded together without tape, so putting pressure on the bottom undoes it a little and spills sprinkles. Sometimes they have 4 for the price of 3 deals that you can watch out for on Instagram, which helps make it a little less overpriced if you want to try multiple flavors. Ordering online was easy, and the employees were nice!

I've been to Sprinkles countless times specifically the location in NYC and every time I've been there, I've always been extremely pleased so I could not pass up an opportunity to visit the Georgetown location of Sprinkles in DC. This location is a lot smaller than the location I visit in NYC and lacks the ice cream selection but the staff definitely makes up for it. When I entered Sprinkles, I was greeted by Tia, who was more than willing to describe the cupcakes and answer all my questions. I settled on the sampler pack which includes a miniature vanilla, strawberry and red velvet cupcake, as well as four regular size cupcakes; vanilla, strawberry, red velvet and lemon blueberry. The sampler pack is a perfect assortment of cupcakes for dessert or an afternoon snack. The regular size cupcakes on the other hand are rather large and can easily be cut in half and shared. The lemon blueberry cupcake features a lemon cake with blueberries inside the cake topped with a lemon buttercream which had little bits of lemon rind in the frosting to enhance the lemon flavor. The red velvet cupcake, which was my favorite, was paired with a cream cheese frosting. The strawberry cupcake was paired with a strawberry buttercream, and the vanilla cupcake was paired with a vanilla buttercream. All cupcakes including the miniature cupcakes, were a little on the dryer side than what I remembered from past visits but the flavors were good, the frostings were perfect and not too sweet. If you're in the area, I recommend you try Sprinkles if you're looking for a variety of flavors, including seasonal flavors that have a touch of uniqueness.

Despite being only a few blocks away from Georgetown Cupcakes, this Sprinkles had a good amount of customers (not as much to have a line forming out the door like Georgetown though). There were 2 staff members here when I came in and they were friendly. They helped the customers fairly quick so everyone was able to get in and out with their order within 5-10 mins. There were 2 areas to sit inside but it's more of a take and go shop. I usually like their cupcakes cause they have the basic flavors but also a few unique/seasonal ones but the one I got this time was just okay. I decided to go with the lemon blueberry - the cake was moist and had plenty of blueberries but the lemon didn't shine through as much. The ratio of cake to frosting was also waay off, definitely too much frosting. The cupcake actually seemed smaller than I remembered it to be. Still a solid spot to get a sweet treat.

Came into Sprinkles over the weekend. It's a very small space. As soon as you walk in you have two iPad's in front of a counter that make self ordering very quick and easy. It's evident that they take great care in creating an inviting atmosphere. I indulged in a Sprinkles cupcake, and it was nothing short of perfection. The cupcake was wonderfully moist, and the sheer amount of frosting was a delightful surprise. Sprinkles doesn't skimp on quality or flavor. I can confidently say that the experience and taste are worth every penny. The quality and taste of their cupcakes make them a treat worth savoring.

Food - 4.5. Service 5. Ambiance -4 Sprinkles is consistent and is a fairly solid cupcakery. My favorites are generally the red velvet, vanilla, and caramel and lemon blueberry (gluten free, they are usually sold out and this time was no exception). While this is one of my more favored cupcake places, It doesn't meet all my requirements for a solid cake. While i appreciate the cake isn't too sweet, I feel it is always a tad not sweet enough. But considering the frosting is very sweet and not light at all, I think it works. I also think the frosting to cake ratio can be a little higher. It is not a fluffy frosting. It is definitely more firm and dry to the touch. I like that the cake is almost always soft. But at the same time it lacks the right amount of moistness. It is a strange dichotomy, as a soft cake is usually moist, but this is not the case here. It is a little closer to a sponge cake than a true cupcake in that way. I do like the fact it isn't like a pound cake - ie, heavier and denser. Service is always fast. I like the kiosks and they will bring your order out in a matter of minutes. The ambiance is what it is. Small but pleasant enough. Not really large enough to sit for long. It's more of a pickup location.

I was in Georgetown recently and have been a Sprinkles fan since living in NYC. I got the Sprinkle, Vanilla, Black & White. They are my faves and I'd say it was good. Although I felt the cream was slightly on the harder side. The service was fast. They have a kiosk to order. I would come back.

Although the ordering experience using the touchscreen systems seems a bit odd and impersonal, the result is some very tasty cupcakes. The cupcakes at Sprinkles are very visually appealing and taste above average against the competing fancy cupcake places in the area. There are plenty of options to choose from and your order is ready in a flash.

Pros: the gluten-free cookie is amazing! cons: not much seating and service is very impersonal, all orders are taken on an iPad.

Must admit, I had a sweet tooth after cooking dinner for me and my friend--Sprinkles immediately came to mind. So. We. Ordered!! Love the cupcakes over Georgetown cupcakes. Moist, tasty, plenty of icing that's not super sweet. I've had soo many of their flavors-- I really like coconut but it wasn't available today. I tried the black and white and my friend had the dark chocolate. You won't be disappointed... !! So enjoyable on my sofa-- we even tried the chocolate chip cookie-- yummm and big enough to share!

I'm glad there wasn't a huge line! It was a great first experience. Ambiance: (5/5) I love the pink storefront. There isn't too much room inside but the store isn't meant for that. Price: (4/5) I definitely think it's a bit pricy, but it does taste really good. When I compare to an expensive coffee, I think it's not too bad. Food: (5/5) The cupcake was moist and sweet. I'm not a fan of icing because it is usually too sweet and feels crunch with all the extra sugar, but this was quite the opposite. The icing really complimented the cupcake. Service: (5/5) The moved the people quickly and were very nice about explaining some of the ingredients to people that had some allergies. In conclusion, I would recommend coming here especially since the line isn't super long all the time.

One of my best friends sent me cupcakes for my birthday, and wow were they delicious. It's been years since I had sprinkles and I'm not sure why after eating them! I guess I need to get to Georgetown more often! I had a black and white, a red velvet, and a vanilla milk chocolate. The black and white cupcake was a chocolate cupcake with vanilla frosting- it was really chocolatey and delicious! The red velvet was super moist with a tangy cream cheese frosting (this one was my favorite) and the vanilla cupcake wasn't overly sweet and had a great mellow chocolate frosting. All were beautifully decorated. She also sent my dog an adorable pup cake, which Wally inhaled. He says he'd definitely order more of those again!

I feel something of a regular here, since the staff have seen me so much that a few know me by name, and it's safe to say that Sprinkles is the best cupcake in Georgetown, no competition. They cupcakes are always fresh, beautiful, and well-packaged. Their delivery service is also always punctual! I love Sprinkles and have to say my favorite cupcakes are the mai tai, French toast, chocolate bunny, Noah schnapp's Nutella, and chocolate con chile

Not sure how I haven't posted a review sooner, but...this IS definitely the spot for delicious cupcakes in DC. There was a time when boutique cupcakes were the hot new trendy thing. What was once a phase has become a yummy staple in the area. This place is still standing. This place is still it. So good. So moist. So sweet. (So mine!) The perfect icing-cupcake ratio. Besides the taste, the sturdy packaging makes for a wonderful gift-giving presentation. Here are a few pics of cupcake orders throughout the years... __ IG: @f.hux I #yelp and I know things.

Sprinkles cupcakes just make anyone's day better, the self checkout kiosk makes ordering quick and flawless.. after you pay your order is out within seconds.. employees are super friendly #ThankYou

These cupcakes were awesome! A very clean and beautiful storefront and super kind employees made this experience great from the start. The cupcakes are next level, perfectly fluffy and absolutely delicious. The sprinkles cupcake is a must try!

Such a disappointment for my daughter's 18th birthday. Ordered from this location in the past and was satisfied but this time... NO. The cupcakes were noticeably smaller. For 5-6$ a piece, they shouldn't be this size. Never again from this location and will buy in person at other locations to confirm they are not this small. Unacceptable.

Why this place more expensive than Georgetown Cupcakes? You trippin. Anyways, the cupcakes here are delicious! Competitive with Georgetown cupcakes. This time, I got the salted caramel. The flavor was so addicting, I wish I got an extra. However, there's a little circle candy like piece on top of the frosting. It's real hard and salty, no thanks. The place is so cute, pink interior. Friendly staff. However, I wish they had more of their special cupcakes available, since I went on a weekday around 4pm. Maybe it was that popular.

Venture to DC for a doctors appointment and on the way out the office, I saw someone walking down the hall with a Sprinkles bag. I'm new to the area and had never heard of them, but suspected it might be a cupcake shop. I looked them up immediately and decided to trek down the street. As for the cupcakes. They're very cute and they have a fair amount of flavors to choose from, like chocolate marshmallow, triple cinnamon, lemon blueberry, strawberry. I ordered a half dozen and it ran about $26. I was super excited to get home and try them, but the taste was very...underwhelming. Nothing impressive. They aren't moist. They honestly kind of lean towards dry and they crumble everywhere when you eat them. A middle school baker could easily deliver a more tasty cupcake. The BEST part of the experience was the service. The person who took my order was very kind and patient. I wish they'd had a tip option.

Sprinkles! Finally I live near a sprinkles! I ordered their mothers mystical creatures edition cupcake for curbside pick up and was not disappointed. Curbside order also was also quick and efficient.

I love Sprinkles cupcakes but because I have had a negative experience twice with the same employee, I will no longer patronize that business. The lady was curt, rude and never greeted me (she saw me enter, ignored my salutation, and after waiting for a couple minutes another employee assisted me) though I've witness her being polite to other non melanated customers. Once is happenstance, twice a coincidence, and we'll I'm not allowing a third time. Disappointed and for service alone, it's a pass for me.

ARE YOU KIDDING this was an impromptu stop on a little weekend trip to DC. I wasn't expecting much and they were already out of most flavors by the time we got there in the evening, but this was probably one of the best cupcakes I've ever had--practically inhaled the thing. It was super moist and the ratio of cake to icing was perfection. Not too sweet and satisfied the craving. This is worth the hype and the store is super cute :)

Wow. Sprinkles never fails to impress me. They're always so perfectly iced and presented nicely. I decided to grab a box for a friend's birthday and fell in love with their Christmas flavors. The gingerbread cupcake was moist and had the ideal ratio of gingerbread flavor to vanilla frosting. I would order this again in a heartbeat. I've never had a cupcake with a similar flavor and liked it almost even more than a gingerbread cookie. The chocolate peppermint cupcake is a crowd favorite. I wish they made this a full time flavor. The way the peppermint texture topping complements the rich flavor of the dark chocolate cake is incredible. Next time, I'm ordering more chocolate peppermint. The red velvet is always a hit. It's the best red velvet cupcake I've ever had. Overall-- if you got a sweet tooth head to sprinkles. These are my favorite cupcakes of all time.

~ gluten free review ~ A friend sent me some gluten-free cupcakes from the Georgetown location via Grubhub and can I tell you the delivery was so quick and easy. I received two of each of the gluten-free flavors, the red velvet as well as the lemon blueberry. I am a chocolate cupcake kind of girl so I definitely preferred the red velvet, however the lemon blueberry was very light refreshing however my only feedback is that they were probably too many blueberries so the cupcake was not very stable. Hopefully Sprinkles makes more gluten-free flavors since their cupcake base might be the best I have tried! I will 100% be ordering them from this location for any future events (but most likely just red velvet for now).

I love Sprinkles! They are my preferred cupcake spot in DC. Delicious and made fresh.

These cupcakes are so soft and so good. If they weren't so expensive I'd order the store. The inside is super cute and clean. In terms of service, you put in your own order and then they call your name when your order is ready. It's super quick and efficient.

Better than Georgetown cupcakes! Nothing more needs to be said. Skip the line at Georgetown cupcakes and go to sprinkles.

Another cupcake place in Georgetown! I'd rank this place as a good middle man. We ordered online for pick up and drove up to the front of the shop and they placed our order in the back seat. They have a good system goin on! We got a set of two: carrot cupcake and black and white cupcake. The cupcakes are smaller than I thought they would be, but they tasted delicious. The cake itself was very moist. The icing was rich, but not overpowering. The cupcake is not crazy sweet, which we like. The ratio of cake to icing was perfect! Out of the two, I'd recommend the carrot cupcake because all of the flavors were really apparent. Their packaging is really cute! I'd say that they are up to par with the other cupcake competitors in the area so give them a try!

I was very excited to try this place because I'm a huge fan of Sugar Rush ! And it did not disappoint! We tried the: - Red Velvet - Strawberry - Black and White - and Vanilla White Chocolate All were delicious! I particularly enjoyed the strawberry! I feel like that's a hard flavor of cake to nail. It was light and fluffy and didn't taste artificial one bit. I would definitely return !

Used Sprinkles after the suggestion of a friend because of their ability to individually wrap each cup cake. We were going on a small yacht for a birthday celebration. Because of COVID-19 I didn't want us getting a box of cupcakes where people would be passing the box around like a buffet. Sprinkles was the answer. In terms of customer service I give Sprinkles 5 stars. They were professional and accommodating over the phone and very helpful. When I arrived and called alerting them that I was outside they were prompt and responded immediately. The cupcakes themselves are just okay to me. Maybe too much icing for my personal liking. I would return because of the service but it honestly wouldn't be my first choice in terms of flavor.

In the Georgetown area over the weekend and was happy to see that I was nearby Sprinkles after having one of the best cupcakes ever in Tampa FL. So of course I had to try it out again for consistency sake. Wow, soOooOoo yummy! These cupcakes are my absolute fave. I tried the strawberry cupcake again and my happy dance returned. The cupcake was so moist and fresh! They even had a chocolate chip cookie on the menu for my fiancé to try which was great because he's not a cake guy. The cookie was very good! While this location is much closer than Tampa FL, it's still at least 1.5hrs away from my home. Whenever I'm in the area again, I'll be sure to stop by!

Tried their new apple pie cupcake ($4.95). My god this was one of the best cupcakes I've ever tasted! Visible tasty chunks of apple, brown sugar crumb cake, delectable brown sugar frosting & buttercream. Don't ruin it for yourself by looking up the calorie count! Available only in September! The employees were cheerful and efficient. There's not much room to sit and eat (two small tables on both sides of the entrance). Still I will be coming back sooner than later. I gave it a five although there's a sign that says "give him a treat" referring to their specially made dog cupcake. What about all the female dogs?!

I'm conflicted in my review of this place, I had really high hopes but I was definitely let down. I placed a pretty large $140 order for 31 cupcakes for my sons birthday. I actually cancelled my order from Georgetown cupcakes to try out this place, and I honestly wish I didn't. The customer service inside the store was great. The cupcakes were ready on time. The decorations were nice. But, there was an eyelash on a cupcake. Not just on top, but in the icing. They offered to refund that one cupcake but at that point I didn't want to eat the other ones with the same icing. The cupcakes themselves tasted basic. They were not moist, kind of dry? The icing was okay. For $140 I'd expect much more and certainly a better response to an eyelash on my food. I unfortunately won't be returning here again.

I wish I could give this place a 0 star. My teachers daughter 18th birthday recently occurred. She thought it would be a good idea to order her some cupcakes. So during the snow cation of 2024 the cupcakes were being ordered to the wrong place. So she call, text,email no responds to this day. One month later. Service terrible food mid.

I've tried nearly every cupcake place in the area. Not all, but close. There are a lot of competitors. Sprinkles is a great place to grab a delicious and huge cupcake! They have a lot of different flavors to choose from and the lines are usually much smaller than places like Georgetown Cupcakes.

We finally made it to the popular gem in Georgetown...Sprinkles Cupcakes. It was a tough choice, but we decided on the Pumpkin, Vanilla, Dark Chocolate, and Red Velvet. The cupcakes were light, fluffy, and moist, and the frostings weren't too sweet. Delicious!

We stopped at Sprinkles last week because I was really craving a vanilla cupcake (or 3) lol. My husband went in and said there was a new ordering system- you use a kiosk to select but then someone gives you the cupcakes. I'm not sure if this is a Covid protocol or makes it more efficient for ordering. I really love the buttercream on the cupcakes- we tried three very- strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate. The icing was superb for all cupcakes. The cake was generally good but I wish it had slightly more density to it to hold up to the weight of the buttercream. However definitely enjoyed them and would of course return for more!

I ordered four cupcakes from across the country to be delivered via Door Dash for a special birthday on New Years Day. Chocolate, carrot, coconut and salty caramel. The reviews for sure sold me on ordering from Sprinkles, because, well, I wanted to be sure to get these from the best spot in DC. Reviewers comments about customer service also led me to order from Sprinkles. Bonuses were being opened New Years Day and delivering to the family members place in NW DC. The cupcakes arrived super quickly and the surprised recipient pronounced them amount the best they ever had, with coconut being the favorite. Yep, I'll order these again

Ok, so the last time I went to Sprinkles Cupcakes, I got the Chocolate Marshmallow cupcake and I was not a fan. But lately, Georgetown Cupcake hasn't been doing it for me, Baked & Wired was just so-so, and Red Velvet-who? Cue the Dark Chocolate cupcake, which has restored my faith in the Sprinkles brand. The Belgian dark chocolate cake was moist, the chocolate frosting was chocolaty and light (not as heavy as cream cheese-based frostings). It's every chocolate lover's dream! I would definitely get it again. The employees who served me my cupcake and rung up my order were friendly. Sprinkles has a loyalty program and the cashier made sure that I got my loyalty points without prompting, which I appreciated (some places could care less if you get your loyalty points or not). My only gripe is that when I ordered my cupcake, I wanted to eat-in, but the place is so small and seating is limited (only two tables) that there was no other option but for me to get it to-go. I would have loved to get the full Sprinkles experience and eaten my cupcake there, at its peak. Kudos to the employee for giving me the call of "here or to go," but I wonder if I had chosen "for here" if the expectation was for me to stand around and eat it... Regardless, their dark chocolate cupcake is just what you need to brighten a rainy day.
