Whip It Good

Kara's Cupcakes Parties and the Kara Van

kara's cupcakes parties!

Lackluster magic shows, picnic go-rounds, and an endless blur of pizza parties. You can do better.

Break the mold with a unique birthday bash at Kara’s Cupcakes.

The Marina, Napa, and Palo Alto outposts are now hosting private treat-making parties on weekday afternoons. Preorder the cupcake fillings (lemon, caramel, passion fruit), then wee pastry chefs get creative learning to color, roll, and shape fondant. Following a frosting and decorating session, they can either nibble on-site or carry home in custom boxes.

Rather have the party come to you? Simply book the new Kara Van. The chocolate-colored bakery-on-wheels will roll to the destination of your choice to dish out chocolate velvet, Kara’s Karrot, and other fluffy favorites.

Talk about sweet success.
