If the great outdoors are her first passion, food is definitely a close second. I was excited by my friend Hannah’s enthusiasm over the cupcakes. It’s an 8 mile round-trip hike, estimated at 5 hours, and an elevation gain of 2,100 feet.) (Dan and I at Zion National Park, where we hiked up to Observation Point. I almost gave up, but I’m glad I didn’t! See that little valley below? Yeah, that’s where we started.

I had to replace all the used up calories somehow, right? We had many new adventures in Utah, including river rafting, rappelling, taking a dip in a natural hot spring, and hiking up some big elevations and we ended each night with a cupcake adventure. (Selected cupcakes: Mocha Latte, Night ‘n Day, White Chocolate Spice Cake, Strawberry Lemon, Wascally Wabbit, and Peanut Butter Explosion.) I don’t think I could have chosen any less, and looking at the photo of the display case again makes me wish we’d gotten more! The staff working there was also very helpful in letting us know what they liked and what (if any) alternatives to the menu they preferred.ĭan and I decided we would get six to take with us. Of course, when I walked in I was too overwhelmed by choices to use my own creativity! However, Mad Hatter Cupcakes has an organized display, showcasing possible creations, as well as a menu board with suggested flavors.

It was the first time I’d come across it, so I was super excited about the opprotunity to get creative. One of the things that intrigued me most about Mad Hatter Cupcakes was their, “build-your-own” concept. Luckily my husband and I had rented a car and were heading to Virgin, Utah (home to Zion National Park) to visit a friend. This bakery popped up in my pre-vacation research so I knew ahead of time that they were located away from The Strip. We’ve come to my final Las Vegas cupcake adventure: Mad Hatter Cupcakes.
