To find the number of mocha flavored cupcakes sold, we can calculate 53% of the total cupcakes sold, which is 200.

First, we convert the percentage into a decimal:
\[
53\% = \frac{53}{100} = 0.53
\]

Next, we multiply the total number of cupcakes by this decimal:
\[
\text{Number of mocha flavored cupcakes} = 200 \times 0.53
\]

Now, performing the multiplication:
\[
200 \times 0.53 = 106
\]

Thus, the number of mocha flavored cupcakes sold that day was \(\boxed{106}\).
