Just like Mom used to say: "If it looks good enough to eat, I bet it's from that delicious sweet store next to the old gin mill. You know the one I'm talking about, right? No, not that one. I'm talking about Edibles Incredible Desserts, where I buy all my artful, tantalizing desserts and store them in my chest freezer next to my year supply of spinach quiches." And Mom was always right. Today's Groupon gets you $25 worth of melt-in-your-mouth, delectable creations for only $10 at Edibles Incredible Desserts.
Edibles' full menu of copious sweet-somethings pleases even the most ardent sugar-fiend: moist, dense cakes; moist, dense cupcakes; not moist, possibly dense truffles; Alan's secret recipe probably not moist, dense fudge; and gobs of gluten-free options. Fall head over heels for the chocolate fudge supreme cake (chocolate cake with a layer of secret-recipe fudge), refreshing and rich champagne truffles, or the bliss-inducing chocolate Oreo lover's cupcake.
Owners and husband-and-wife dessert-making team Alan Furman and Robyn Hanna's sweet creations have been featured on Fox and The Washington Post.

Yelpers give it four stars and Insider Pages reviewers give it five:
- "The chocolate butter cream cupcake was wailing like some siren's song and we succumbed to its enticement. The cupcake was moist and rich. The butter cream was sweet but not sugary." – Tony P., Yelp
- "Some of my favorites are their red velvet cake and their Elvis cupcake - the dollop of peanut butter in the center of the cupcake is a great surprise and oh so yummy!" – Melanie P., Yelp
- "If you love cupcakes, this place will wow you. Superb desserts and fudges, for those who are not counting calories." – Alexandra G., Insider Pages
Make An Impression With Candy
Giving a dessert item as gift is the ideal way to make a lasting impression on the recipient, which will help you, the dessert-item-giver, reap positive benefits. Here are just some ways giving sweets will improve your life:
- Boss: Prior to a performance review, give your boss a box of truffles. The boss will likely demote himself, promote you to boss, and give you the keys to his safe deposit box.
- A Crush: Bring a crush a fudgilicious cupcake and you will get married, have three children, and guest host the Emmy-nominated documentary Don't Forget The Lyrics!.
- Home Contractor: A jar of Chocoholics Body Frosting will guarantee free construction on an extra story complete with secret passages and a live petting zoo.
