I highly recommend Furin's in Georgetown.  I've purchased cakes from them a number of times for everything from office parties (half a sheet cake), showers, to husband's birthday.  I've tried a number of different flavors and have never been disappointed.  Definitely worth a try:

Whole Foods has the best cakes. I recently purchased a full sheet cake --black forest-- for my daughter's graduation. It was custom decorated and easily fed 100. Everyone raved. The chocolate butter cream is also a hit.
