Good: the vegan cupcakes are probably the best around…read more Bad: their prices are high in comparison with GF bakeries basically in any major city, and they have an illegal "No Cash" policy (illegal under DC law. The owner should look up the law because she's way out of compliance: https://code.dccouncil.gov/us/dc/council/laws/23-187), but charge a 3% fee if you pay by credit card, which you are required to. They basically give you no option to avoid paying a fee. (In response to the owner's response below: They have a sign that says NO CASH, so is a customer supposed to believe they'll accept cash IF the customer has exact change, as the owner says they will? And if they do accept that cash, then they would, in fact, have cash on hand anyway, which undercuts her claim they have no cash on hand...but they don't because they have a sign that says NO CASH. Every other business in the community doesn't blame the city for their own non-compliant policies, as the owner does, and accepts cash in the same circumstances. Plenty of places are happy to take cash and prefer it, and it is required by DC law. I was surprised to see this NO CASH sign after emailing with the owner about it *a year and a half ago.* I walked right out when I saw the sign.) They also now have a self-serve bar which invites the spread of things like norovirus. There are no sneeze guards. They make it hard for me to support them even though I really have been trying to for years.

Everybody should stop what they're doing right now and order a pie from this place immediately…read more Preferably pies, plural. I went a little nuts and ordered THREE for Thanksgiving 2022. One look and no one in my family could wait until Thanksgiving, so we dug in two days early. Was it worth it? YES. The apple is a bit tart but in the best possible way. With the flakiest crust you've ever seen. The chocolate pecan was a force to be reckoned with-- let me tell you, this pie is for serious chocoholics only. Part-time chocolate lovers need not apply! Last but not least, the banana cream pie was simply divine. Like floating on a cloud of deliciousness. You may be wondering-- is a banana cream pie worthy of an autumn holiday? The answer is YES... but only if it comes from Bake Peace.

They had many mouthwatering options on their website, however we decided on their strawberries and cream option and instead of the perseveres filling we opted for the "sorbet" option. The look: check, the cake: check, the sorbet: check, but the cream cheese filling is going to be a no forme. I'm not sure if the cream cheese filling had too much lemon juice or cream of tartar (to stabilize it) but it was definitely giving sour. As everything else was so great I would definitely consider coming back again to try their other options (4/5). FYI: they offer pickup and delivery (this starts at $20)
