Cupcakes in San Francisco, CA

“Great staff at this location. I visited in the afternoon on a Saturday so there was a line waiting to get into the bakery about 10 minutes. I purchased a small chocolate cake, 2 raspberry bombs and 2 chocolate chip cookies. All very different taste, and all VERY delicious!“

“I'm hesitant to tell you how good the buckwheat financiers are, because they will likely sell out even faster, but they are remarkably good.

There's a reason there is almost always a line outside the door here. Great treats and coffee, along with quick, friendly service.

Highly recommend!“

“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“

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

“Always love your scones, thank you!“

“For my daughter wedding I ordered the Naked Cake. Absolutely delicious and beyond. Was the best cake that I've ever had. Highly recommended 👌“

“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.“

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

“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.“

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