Gluten Free Red Velvet... enough said. Felt like it was meant to be for me to be there that day. They have other GF flavors too but this one is coveted for me right alongside carrot cake. Everyone does the bland chocolate and vanilla, but it's the specialty flavors us GF folks really want! We can get chocolate and vanilla cupcakes from virtually any grocery store now. Thanks for doing more! My only qualm is that they have more GF flavors available per day! That way folks can really get more than 1-2. read more

Since I happened to be in Georgetown, I stopped by Sprinkles to taste the famous cupcakes I often hear about. I purchased the vanilla cupcake with sprinkles. While the cupcake (albeit a little smooshed during transport, lol) was tasty, I felt the size of the cupcake was a bit small (at least considering the price). I might come back to try different flavors, since the flavor selections at Sprinkles seem to be very popular. read more

I was very hyped up to come here because I was told it was one of the best cupcake spots, but I didn't think that it was that impressive. I really enjoyed the strawberry cupcake until it got to the espresso one and that made me very sick. Maybe it was just me because I typically don't eat anything that has espresso in it, but I felt that the cupcakes were very sweet. Inside of the shop was very cute and they had these little like round tables that you could sit at that were up against the window. The service was absolutely incredible. The girl working was such a sweetheart. I just really wish that I liked the cupcakes a lot more. read more

Besides them being quite pricey, I really have no complaints. While walking around the Georgetown area for the first time I was excited to see a Sprinkles location as I have never had a Sprinkles cupcake. The staff was super friendly and there was no long lines. Considering it was Valentine's Day when I went I was actually surprised it wasn't that busy but it did seem like they had a lot of orders. read more

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... read more

The Sprinkles location in Georgetown, DC, is a good cupcake option in the city. Since opening in the early 2010s, I've visited a few times and my most recent visits this year came after an over decade-long gap since the previous visit because my earlier experiences were simply not good. I am pleased and proud to say the quality of their cupcakes and product consistency has improved, making the brand very competitive on M Street where there are other competitive cupcake shops within walking distance. However, I did notice the size of the cupcakes are noticeably smaller compared to the earlier days when they first opened. Despite the smaller-sized cupcakes, the price certainly increased. The cupcakes are moist and the icing is delicious. They have a catalogue of various flavors, some traditional and others, novelty. They also have treats for pups. The customer service was very good and the ordering process is conducted via kiosk in the lobby, which again is an update from my earlier experiences with the shop. Speaking of lobby, it is very welcoming with vibrant tones of pink. Overall, a good experience and I will continue to visit when in the area. read more

This is one location I always visit when in Georgetown. I love their cupcakes. They are moist, flavorful and delicious. They are pricey but it's a good quality product in my opinion. My splurge for the day. The store is small. Very limited seating. I needed to redeem my birthday cupcake and using the self paying option I couldn't figure out how to do that. One of the young ladies assisted with no issues by ringing me up. I do miss talking more with the staff. read more

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. read more

Sprinkles Georgetown - Sprinkles - Lemon Blueberry & Strawberry - Bakeries Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

I've ordered here a few times. The look of them alone are crowd pleasers. I prefer the mini versions to the large ones, only because I find the large ones to have an abundance of icing which isn't my preference. The cakes are moist, and every flavor I've tried has been delicious. My go-to is always red velvet, but I have to say with this place any flavor is worth trying. These are always a hit for birthdays- it's definitely way better to get a few cupcakes and flavors to mix and let people choose than one giant cake with fake icing from the local grocer. And they look so pretty! read more

Sprinkles Georgetown - January Mini Sampler: chocolate, vanilla + sprinkles, red velvet - Bakeries Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

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. read more

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. read more

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

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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.

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! read more

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! read more

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 read more

I've ordered from Sprinkles on numerous occasions because they run out of cupcakes quickly unless you place an order. I'm not sure if it's a capacity order with the baking because it's never crowded . However, tastes delicious.. I had to speak to a manager roughly a week and a half ago because I had rude sales person, who decided to slide my bag over to me and dismiss me, but was able to be very friendly with the other patrons. The manager I spoke to was very receptive to my complaint and said they were passing it on to the owner, which I never heard from. It is daunting to know that a person has a negative experience at a place they frequency often and doesn't receive follow up. The beautiful thing about living in the city is there are so many cupcake shops. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

terribly overpriced for a stale almost tasteless matcha cupcake. Georgetown cupcake far far better. don't waste your money!

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?! read more

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. read more

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. read more
