Georgetown Cupcake

Sisters Sophie LaMontagne and Katherine Kallinis, the stars of TLC's DC Cupcakes, debut a pink-swathed bakeshop and Illy coffee bar in Soho. Eighteen flavors, made with pedigreed ingredients like Valrhona chocolate and Madagascar bourbon vanilla, rotate on a weekly basis. LaMontagne and Kallinis nod to their adopted city with the NY Dozen box, which highlights a few new cupcakes (apple crumble, New York cheesecake, black-and-white cookie) decorated with yellow taxi cab and "I Love NY" fondants.
