Today I stopped into Kara's Cupcakes in the Marina for some adorably miniature cupcakes.

These lovely mini's come packaged in a bright pink box screaming "open me sweet valentine!"

What's your favorite thing to give or receive - flowers or cupcakes?

I think I will treat myself to these for Weekly Wednesday and attempt to recreate the delicious Kara's red velvet cupcake for Valentine's Day. Check back Friday for the recipe!

I have ordered from Kara's for birthday parties, fundraisers, and holiday shin-digs. Kara's always offers the best cupcake combinations, big or miniature, and allows you to pick the sugary topping of your choice - from hearts and footballs, to stars and snowflakes. Definitely the best cupcakes I have tried, and my go-to: super fluffy, very flavorful, and the perfect amount of frosting.

From time to time I even stop in to try something for myself. My personal favorite is either the holiday peppermint crunch chocolate cupcake, or red velvet. 

You can find Kara's Cupcakes in San Francisco on Scott Street in the Marina, and in the surrounding Bay area.
