Crema's Take

Baked & Wired is a Georgetown institution beloved for show-stopping cupcakes with creative flavor combinations like Chocolate Doom and Razmanian Devil that locals rave about as some of the best they've had in decades. The pastries are beautifully presented and made with real care—whether you're after traditional favorites like German Chocolate Cake or adventurous options like Vegan Oreo—though fair warning: the hype is real and so are the lines, especially during peak hours. Come early, decide fast, and you'll understand why people wrap around the block for their indulgent, exceptionally moist treats.

Came here for dessert and I could see why the line was nearly wrapped around the block. I had the gluten-free chocolate chip cupcake and my husband had the carrot cake and red velvet cupcakes. We were very pleased! 😋 🧁 So delicious!

A large variety of cupcakes and all are delicious. Favorites are the Vegan Oreo and German Chocolate Cake (both shown). Can be a big line at peak times so would recommend coming earlier in the day. The coffee is good & everyone is very nice! Very limited seating.
