No, cupcakes are not good, under baked and just not good. 👎🏻

These cupcakes are built like muffins and bear little more than surface level resemblance to cupcakes. On the plus side, the staff were friendly and professional.

TLDR: employee tried to steal money from me.
Instead of passing me the ipad at the end of the transaction, the employee at counter filled it out herself and then I get a notification from my bank and realize the employee surreptitiously added a tip for herself onto my bill. I wonder how many people she’s done that to who don’t have notifications turned on for purchases from their bank. Doesn't get any more sketchy than this place.

The place closed 9+ minutes before said online. Many people left outside not happy (10/1 :)

Always a wonderful selection of cupcakes! Always GREAT flavors from this bakery and I have been to many of Kara's locations. The frosting tastes of butter and some sugar not overly sweet which I love. You actually taste the fruit, salted caramel or whatever the flavor is. This is truly a quality cupcake. Staff is very helpful and kind always here.

I have tried many bakeries that specialize in cupcakes and nobody has been able to beat Kara's on flavor, quality, and service (not even the famed Sprinkles).

Ordered a cake looking at their cake designs and cupcakes. The cake was damaged and they take a long time to respond back. The cake and the edible disc both were damaged by them but still no refund or help provided for the cake. I was told to come to store and have free cupcakes for my damaged cake which cost me almost $125. Plus no response/help provided in store.
