Cupcakes near San Francisco, CA

“Amazing! I’m currently obsessed with their Milky Way Bombe! Explosion of flavor. Fruit tarts are good, and I can also recommend the raspberry cheesecake. They do NOT have eating spaces, so this is a strictly to-go store. They also have a much bigger selection of cakes through the website that you can order for pickup. I haven’t given any of those a try, but they definitely look good. Service is always polite and helpful. Since the place is small, If there’s a line, there’s a little sign at the sidewalk indicating it.“

“Got the Paris ham sandwich with salted butter & cornichons, fantastic. Not really “Paris” since it’s not a white baguette, but it’s an incredibly good wheat bread. You would be happy eating the bread by itself.“

“Stopped in for a birthday cupcake and the passion fruit was amazing!“

“Grab a tray and tongs and go to town on French bread, cocktail buns made of milk bread and filled with a buttery coconut, concha, and a cookie. Service with a smile. Perfect for a brunch at home. Leftover sweet bread makes a ravishing bread pudding“

“Always love your scones, thank you!“

“We bought six cups and EVERY last one of them were AMAZING!!!!!. Moist and flavorful. The ladies at the counter had beautiful spirits and were genuinely glad to be of service. This will be my first stop next time I'm in Oakland.“

“I have tried most everything here. Everything is absolutely wonderful. The cakes are always moist and delicious. I am partial to the tropical coconut. ❤“

“Kara's Cupcakes is my absolute favorite cupcake place. So much so that whenever visitors have come to town, I would usually make it a point to take them here as my own sweet treat.

While you can't really go wrong with any selections from their menu, their Gluten-Free Chocolate Velvet cupcake (with chocolate sprinkles on top) is divine. It's been my favorite since before I really knew much of what gluten-free was all about. Their Sweet S'mores cupcake is also quite a special treat with its graham cracker crust on the bottom, and its marshmallow-y goodness is reminiscent of a much fancier & delectable version of a Hostess Ding Dong.“

“100% recommend ! The staff are lovely, service was brilliant and the handmade Caramel’s are to die for !!“

“I was not expecting this to be literally the best cupcake I’ve ever had. I got the chocolate Raspberry and it was so so delicious. It had a yummy cream cheese frosting that is perfectly balanced with tangy and sweet, a yummy raspberry filling that moistens the cake, as well as a rich chocolate cake with a delicious deep flavor! This cupcake made my anti cupcake girlfriend rethink everything she knows about cupcakes.“

“Their Dutch Apple is Deliciousssss😋“

I have also brought their cupcakes to family events and to my office and they are always a huge hit! It’s hard to pick a favorite! Beat tasting cakes and cupcakes around!“

“I cannot say enough about The Cake Queen and Coffee Bar. The cake was just what we wanted. They worked with me, making everything easy. The taste of the cake was equally amazing and received rave reviews at my nieces baby shower.“

“I love and appreciate this team. I’ve been coming to them for about 2 years for there amazing Bundtinis. I regularly host open houses in the area and bring these decadent treats for my clients. Everyone LOVES them. Thank you!!!“

“I think it may be the best cupcake in the East Bay!!! Perhaps the whole bay. And if you’re glutton-free?! Have no fear! These GF gems are just as moist and delicious as their glutinous cousins. Tucked away in the North Oakland-Emeryville neighborhood you’ll find this boutique to answer your craving for both the classic and adventurous cupcake flavors. Bet you can’t eat just one! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“lemon and chocolate chocolate chip are the bomb my 1st time. I will definitely be going again“
