Georgetown Cupcake's white chocolate peppermint variety, which contains roughly 250 calories. According to a 2010 interview with CNN's Larry King, the owners of Georgetown Cupcake, Katherine Kallinis and her sister Sophie LaMontagne, said the chocolate ganache flavor is 200 calories and other varieties with more frosting are roughly 250 calories.
