Our reader Maya sent us this query - I'm hoping some bakery out there can help. If so, leave a comment or email us at cupcakestakethecake at gmail.com and we will pass your information on to Maya.
I've been a fan of your website for awhile and searched for days (on your website and the web) trying to find a company that would be willing to ship cupcakes/cakes via USPS certified for a birthday coming up. Alas, there seems to be NO COMPANY out there that's willing to ship to any military base. I just thought I'd share the news in hopes that maybe one day, more companies will care about the men and women that fight for our country from the home front.

I'm trying to ship to a Navy base in Dam Neck, Virginia by the 27th but the problem I keep having is no one uses USPS (because without the package being certified, there's no way he'll receive it.)

there are a lot in Northern Virginia.
The company I worked at shipped things to military bases all the time in priority mail boxes. You can add delivery confirmation for like $1 or many businesses get it for free.
I know http://www.bakeshopdc.com/ delivers in Northern Virginia, you can ask them about delivery to the base. i also remember reading about companies that shipped nationwide, but can't recall the brand(s)
