Warren Brown is on a mission. 

The eponymous all-American baker, owner and founder of CakeLove and Food Network star, has plans to get you into the kitchen.  A graduate of Brown University with a Bachelor’s degree in history, and of George Washington University, where he earned his law degree and a Master’s in Public Health, Brown dropped his law career like a bad debt in 2000 and followed his life’s calling by researching and refining the art and science of baking. By 2002, he had opened his first CakeLove shop in the District.  Brown is an impassioned advocate of “pure food” and natural ingredients, and delivers devotion to his craft and his customers every day. Last Friday, I caught up with Brown outside his newest location at National Harbor. I found him to be a gentle and droll man, generous of spirit and dedicated to sharing his knowledge with others.

WARREN BROWN: I’ve been talking to a woman who has an existing ice cream shop, Maggie Moo’s, in the downtown area around the Metro Center. The idea would be to partner in one shop.

LOCAL KICKS:  A lot of your fans were introduced to you and your cakes through the Food Network with your show “Sugar Rush.” When did all that begin?  Continue reading CakeLove’s Warren Brown Brings His Sugar Rush To National Harbor
