A cupcake a day never hurt anyone... right? This Valentine's Day TLC.com launches #CUPCAKECAM LIVE taking viewers into the sweet world of the famous Georgetown Cupcake in Washington, DC. Multiple cameras placed throughout the cupcakery's flagship store will give behind-the-scenes access to six different parts of the bakery, including the decorating, packaging, and frosting stations. Katherine and Sophie, stars of TLC's DC Cupcakes, will also make special appearances!

With six locations across the country, Georgetown Cupcake pops out 25,000 delicious cupcakes a day! Launching on Valentine's Day, February 14th, #CupcakeCam Live will give viewers a chance to watch the tasty treats they're craving as cupcakes are prepared in the mixers and placed in the ovens. Then, when fans take a peek at what's chilling inside the fridge they'll learn the secret flavor of the day. Order it by the name and it's free! Viewers can check out the cupcakes as they cool down and prepare to get frosted and decorated on the Cupcake Racks Camera. The Frosting Camera gives sweet-crazed fans a chance to see how the cupcakes get their signature swirl frosting. Then, the Fondant Camera gives a closer look at the beautiful creations that top off each cupcake. Finally, watch the cupcakes get packaged and sent off in Georgetown Cupcake's signature pink box with the Packaging Camera.

"We're so excited to give everyone an inside look at Georgetown Cupcake - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week," said Sophie LaMontagne and Katherine Kallinis Berman, co-founders of Georgetown Cupcake. "Every day is a whirlwind of activity, and we can't wait to share all the action with everyone... LIVE."
