The last time Care was in Cardiff he was a part of the England squad that beat Wales in the 2011 Six Nations opener. Now Care is hoping to complete a memorable double in the Welsh capital.
"I've already got a win down there with England this season and hopefully we can relive a few of those memories this weekend," said Care.
"It's a massive game for us. Ever since I've been at the club I've been desperate to win something. This is our first opportunity to do that and will be my first cup final.
"The last cup I won was probably the Yorkshire Cup with West Park Leeds at Under 9's!
"I've never been involved in a real cup final but they're the games you want to play in. You want to be in the European competitions, that's why you play the game.
"There's a massive sense of excitement around the club, everyone is looking forward to it. To do something with your club is really special because it's with the mates you're with every day. If we can do it for each other and the fans it will be huge."
But the 30-cap England international is under no illusions to the magnitude to the task at hand and has pointed to the Stade 8-9-10 axis as a particular threat.
"They are brilliant, all three of them are world class players and we will have to be on the mettle all week and all game because they can sting you from anywhere," added Care.
"Sergio Parisse is one of the best forwards in the world and Lionel Beauxis and Julien Dupey are some of the best halfbacks you will see.
"It's going to be a good test playing against them and in a final it will be extra special."
But Care remains confident that the Quins have what it takes to clinch triumph in the showpiece final.
"No one expected us to win down in Munster but we always had self belief and knew we could do it. We know on our day we can beat anyone, we have great confidence in our squad.
"I don't think any team enjoys playing us. We're a hard team to play because of the way we attack.
"The way we play suits the players we have whether it's Nick Evans or Rory Clegg at fly-half or finishers like Ugo Monye, Gonzalo Camacho and Mike Brown in the back three. "We play at a quick pace and the back-row are quick around the pitch. We enjoy the way we play and won't change it. We want to win and win well.
"We also have one of the best defensive records in the Premiership. That can't be a fluke, the problem we've had this season is losing the tight games.
"But we managed to win against Munster and that gave us a massive confidence boost.
"It's going to be a massive game. Stade Francais will be up for it. There's a lot at stake for both clubs so hopefully it will make for a great final."
