I have a major sweet tooth, so this line of work was a no-brainer. My mom got me started at a young age, letting me measure out her dry ingredients. Turns out I enjoyed sifting flour. I'm happiest when Mom is in the shop baking with me. Wearing shorts everyday and cookies right out of the oven are also major advantages of the job.
Does anyone know of a local place where I can purchase a vegan cake? Thanks!

Bakeshop is not quite local, but much better than Cakelove, and just a nice walk, if you're able, from the Clarendon metro...........there's a nice toy shop across the street where your purchase earns you a free cupcake, and they're very close to Barnes & Noble, an above average Whole Foods, and great coffee/gelato shop with a large vegan selection called Boccato.......here's Bakeshop's site: http://www.bakeshopva.com/
