Whipped Bakeshop opens tomorrow

Whipped Bakeshop's Zo� Lukas is opening her Fishtown spot (636 Belgrade St.) tomorrow, so Meal Ticket dropped by today to check it out. (We originally mentioned the project back in August.) The LEED-certified corner space will largely serve as a workshop space for Lukas, whose services are in high demand for private clients, but the storefront will also introduce Whipped to the walk-in crowd � they'll do La Colombe coffee as well as a daily-rotating selection of takeaway cupcakes. Expect varieties like red velvet, classic chocolate and vanilla buttermilk tomorrow, with seasonal choices like pumpkin spice coming very soon. Lukas' husband Brennen says they'll rely on Whipped's Twitter to let customers know the day's cupcake varieties.

The bric-a-brac light fixture in the front of the store, an original from sculptor Warren Muller, comes from Kenzo's bahdeebahdu, which also handled design for the clean, colorful interior. More pics after the jump.

Hours: Wed.-Fri., 10 a.m.-6 p.m.; Sat.-Sun., 10 a.m.-4 p.m.; closed Monday; and Tuesday by private appointment only.

God this is 2 blocks away from the house I grew up in, and where my parent's still live. Fishtown's ever changing -ness still really excites me.



This place looks great. And now I really want a cupcake. Thanks Drew, I'll have to stop by tomorrow!!
