Cake love recently opened up in Tyson's Corner mall in Tyson's Virginia. They have several other locations located throughout the DC metro area. Including two in DC, three in Maryland and two in VA.
The cakes are supposed to be great and they offer vegan and gluten free options. yippiee.

UPDATE:
Ok, so I had a chance to try a cupcake from cakelove! Babysitting the other day, the kids wanted to go to the mall so I stopped by the store. They only had one gluten free option, but I'm sure you can pre-order different gluten free varieties.
Soooo how did it taste? Well, I wanted to love it soooo much, but it really wasn't great. It didn't taste much like anything. I got a chocolate cupcake, could barely taste the chocolate and the icing was just o.k. it tasted a little more like cool whip than icing...which is not bad, but it just wasn't great. I would take a cake by Pamela or Namaste over cakelove in a heart beat :-\
I was a little disappointed, especially because I spent $3.50 on it! But it was nice to say that I've tried them. Who knows, the non gluten free cakes might be way better! (probably)

Katie,
Thanks for your blog! I'm not gluten-free, but I'm a senior at UA and about to be a dietitian. I'm working on some stuff for a class and I ran across your blog. Thanks for some ideas you have given me! I'm making some "dining out gluten-free" material for a class. Let me know if you're interested in seeing it. Shoot me an email at rpwebb@bama.ua.edu
Thanks again,
Randy W.
A cupcake shop just opened up in my town and when I asked the owner if they offered a gluten free cupcake she looked at me like I was from Mars!
