I always try to come in at least once a month because of the monthly flavor. Aside from that, I love the fleur de sel and the banana caramel .

Can't go wrong with red velvet but every flavor is worth a try.

Get a raspberry cheesecake cupcake to help fight breast cancer for the whole month of October 15% of the proceeds go to this.

They run out of the best flavors (like raspberry !) at the end of the day, so get there early.

Get the secret Samoan cupcake when they have it. Mmmmm.

Try a cupcake . They named the place after them, after all.

I think I'm the only one not liking icing in here. Tried different flavors but icing always too almond tasting like.

sweet chocolate is amazing. chocolate velvet is awesome too, but I get tired of buttercream frosting after a while.

Ok if you're too lazy to make them yourself. If Sprinkles is the Rolls-Royce of cupcakes , Kara's is the Ford Fiesta.

Chocolate velvet and java. It's all about the buttercream frosting .
