Cupcake Controversy Continued: NBC4 Gets in the Game
If you haven't already read (or tasted) there is a DC debate over cupcakes being cooked up. Now, NBC4 has thrown their hat into the ring by conducting a cupcake taste-test.

The fun part - no one seemed to think that Georgetown Cupcake is worth the price! Um - duh!!! What I would have rather seen them do is a cupcake to cupcake comparison - only bakery cupcakes.
