Utah Cupcake Events & Things to Do this weekend! {April 9-11}
There aren’t a lot of “official” cupcake events in Utah this weekend. But I’ve still found some cupcake things for you to do!
1. Vote for best bakery/best cupcake in Utah County on The Daily Herald Web site. I’m not sure there is even a cupcake category, but I know there is a bakery one.
Have a fun time voting…it’s a hard call! We have so many great bakeries around here.
2. Have brunch and cupcakes out on the deck at Diva’s Cupcakes and Coffee.
If the weather this weekend will be nice, you should enjoy a nice brunch on the deck over at Diva’s. It’s such a cool atmosphere and totally unique. I am dying to go soon since it’s been all-too long since I made my last trip.

3. Buy my favorite vanilla, Blue Cattle Truck Mexican Vanilla, that is and make some vanilla cupcakes. (Here’s my go-to recipe!) You can buy it at Bosch Kitchen Center in Orem or the Provo Kneaders. I’m sure there are other places…that is just where I’ve seen it. I love it so much I think I will need to start buying it in bulk.
Have a great weekend! Eat a cupcake!

Last year Cupcake Chic was there and of course her cupcakes were a hit.
I also found some other noteworthy vendors. (Hope they’ll be there this June!)

…and if I remember correctly, The Sweet Tooth Fairy had some free cookies and cake bites for early birds! 
Mother’s Day Cupcakes
Every time I pass these beautiful flower cupcakes by flickr user Windy Sydney I want to attempt to make fondant flowers. Aren’t they gorgeous? She made them for her mom last mother’s day.
What are you planning to give your mom for mother’s day?
Remember, cupcakes make a fabulous gift!
