“I had the chocolate cupcake with vanilla frosting and sprinkles at Del Rey Festival and it was delicious!! It was very moist, not overly sweet!! At first look, it seems like a cupcake you could make at home but the taste is very unique!! I would go back to try more flavors!!“
“The cake is good, but a bit overpriced for what it is. I bought a red velvet and a chocolate chocolate-chip, both tasty. Works well for a potluck when there are other deserts present or for a small gathering. It's better than supermarket cake, but not up to par with fancy bakeries. It's not something I'd buy routinely, but it is worth it every once in a while.“
“It is one of the best bakeries in the area. I tried the dark chocolate and cream puff, and both were really good. The lady at the front was so patient and explained the difference between the pastries. Overall, it was a great experience. I highly recommend their pastries!!!“
“Today is the second time that I've been assisted by Gabriela A. She helped me find the proper selection for my mixture. We also had a good conversation. She is very professional and helpful. This is definitely the spot to go if you want good service which seems hard to find now a days. They have a wide variety of choices.“
“Lavender Moon has been my go-to spot for cupcakes since 2013. There’s something about their cupcakes that are so different that it makes you want to keep returning. Maybe it’s the texture of the cupcake or maybe the unique flavors they offer, but one thing I do know for sure is that they use very good ingredients. You can literally taste the difference.They have a few staple flavors like vanilla bean with lemon curd that you can never go wrong with. However, I always try something unique like pistachio cherry or chocolate bourbon. Sure, I like some flavors better than other but I’ve never had a cupcake I could complain about from them.I would consider this place a boutique cupcake place since their flavors as well their interior design is unique and quite whimsical. The staff are nice but I think they may be nicer to regulars than new customers from my observation and input from my friends when they pick up an order for me. It’s a small place so I wouldn’t suggest bringing a large group here unless it is for take-out.Cupcakes are a priced fairly but definitely way more expensive than the ones you buy premade at the grocery store… but you’re paying for high quality ingredients and the taste is 100 times better. I can’t ever complain about their prices because it is simply worth it.Dietary restrictions: They also have gluten-free cupcakes.Parking: Parking can be a bit tricky if you’re looking for something for free- but it’s Old Town Alexandria so it’s to be expected.Kid-friendliness: I’ve seen parents bring their kids here for cupcakes and it’s always so cute to see their faces light up when they see that they have so many flavors to choose from.“
