Tucked away at 451 9th Streeet in San Francisco, Cups and Cakes Bakery pride themsleves for specializing in scratch-baked, homemade cupcakes in over 75 flavors. Each Cups & Cakes Cupcake is served in their own little solo-paper cup instead of the typical cupcake wrapper. Clever!
Lucky for us they have 5 flavors to get us into the spirit of St. Patricks Day!

Dark Chocolate Cake. Peppermint Buttercream Filling. Dipped in Dark Chocolate Ganache.
What the dark chocolate cake lacked in decadent chocolateness was made for with it's some what intense peppermint buttercream filling. Topped with a thin layer of rich dark chocolate ganache this combonation of flavors rounds out nicely.
Pot O' Gold:
Green Velvet Cake & Cream Cheese Frosting
It's a red velvet cupcake only it's green!
A cloud of savory sweet cream cheese frosting is the perfect match for the velvety green cake. Adorned with a Rolo pot of gold sprinkles at the end of a rainbow colored sour-candy strip Cups and Cakes Pot O' Gold cupcake is easily the cutest cupcake I have ever seen...and eaten!
Coffee Cake. Jameson Irish Whiskey Buttercream. Clover Sprinkles.
The cake of the Irish Coffee Cupcake was my favorite, not only because it's made with real coffee but it's sweet, fluffy and buttery! Yum! The buttercream could use another shot of Jameson Irish Whiskey because it could pass as vanilla frosting.
Vanilla Cake. Vanilla Butter Cream. Lucky Charms Cereal.
Marshmellow Cereal-Treat or Cupcake?
With it's buttery moist vanilla cake, mild vanilla buttercream and Lucky Charms Cereal topping Cups and Cakes Lucky Charms Cupcake is like biting into a magically delicious sugar sanwhich!
Black & Tan:
Guiness Chocolate Cake. Bailey's Irish Cream Buttercream. Chocolate Drizzle.
Rich chocolate cake infused with guiness and a buzz-worthy Bailey's Irish Buttercream the Black & Tan cupcake is more like an Irish Carbomb Cupcake and it's really, really good.
Even though it's missing a pale-ale counter part the Black & Tan was my favorite because it tasted just like eating the popluar St.Patty's celebratory beverage!
Don't be green with envy!
You can head over to Cups and Cakes Bakery to get a yummy pot of gold for your St. Patricks Day festivities!
