Just Cakes Cupcakes at Chevy Chase Supermarket?

I was going through some old magazines tonight, and when looking through my December Bethesda Magazine, saw an advertisement saying that Just Cakes Cupcakes are now available at the Chevy Chase Supermarket. Has anyone seen them there?

UPDATE: Looks like this is no longer the case! Thanks to reader Kate, I've found out Chevy Chase Supermarket used to carry Just Cakes Cupcakes, but no longer does. Bummer! Thanks for the tip, Kate!

Bethesda Magazine Taste Test's Cupcakes

Keeping up with Washington Post's Cupcake Wars, Bethesda Magazine took it upon themselves to find the Bethesda area's best cupcakes in their most recent issue. "Mark Ramsdell, head instructor of the pastry arts program at L'Academie de Cuisine in Gaithersburg, was the expert judge for the blind taste test while members of the Bethesda Magazine staff were also judges."
The team purchased yellow cupcakes with chocolate icing at five local cupcake shops. You won't see Fancy Cakes by Leslie in the competition though, as they weren't set to open until after the Magazine's deadline.
The big winner of the contest? Just Cakes! And guess who came in dead last? You guessed it, Cakelove. Here's a list of the competitors, listed in order of how they finished in the contest:
4849 Rugby Avenue
301-718-5111
5269 River Road
301-984-4860
6914 Arlington Road
301-656-2340
4961 Elm Street
301-654-7970
935 Ellsworth Drive
301-565-2253
