I have a love for cakes, cookies, pastries and most of
all, donuts. Especially on vacation. Because when you are on vacation, everyone
knows that all the rules of physics go out the door and any calories you consume
are offset by all the walking you do.

My first order of business in Las Vegas was to find some
delicious donuts other than the Krispy Kreme and Dunkin Donuts variety. Located in downtown Vegas, I found Donut Bar! At the time, I didn't know Donut Bar (original
shop in San Diego) was listed as the Number 1 Donut Shop on lists from USA
Today, Thrillist.com, MSN and more. But
as soon as I walked in, I knew I had found a gem.
The donuts they offer are huge, over the top, and look
downright amazing! Their most popular is
their Big Poppa Tart Donut which is made with a full pop tart and weighs one
entire pound! I wanted to try
everything, but I decided on three: crème
brulee, blueberry with meyer lemon, and maple bacon. The crème brulee is a yeast donut filled with
crème topped with a hard candy shell. For
those with a sweet tooth, you will love biting into it. For those that like their donuts a little
less sweet, the blueberry with meyer lemon is perfect.
The cake donut is topped with a perfectly lemony frosting. My favorite was the maple bacon bar. The yeast donut is so soft and topped generously
with thick and chewy bacon pieces that paired with the sweet maple frosting
like a dream. Mmmmmm....
It's a bit of a gamble as they close when they sell out,
but if you visit Donut Bar after 10am, they serve donut ice cream cones!!! I will get one of those one day!
