UPDATE February 11, 2021 – The LINQ Promenade location has closed permanently, but now you can find 4 Sprinkles ATM locations at the airport and one at Galleria at Sunset.
Welcome to the Local Adventurer Link Up #7. The purpose of this weekly link-up is to foster gratitude for the place you live, show others great local experiences that they might never find as a tourist, and to inspire others to explore and be present wherever they are. Our local adventure this week is Sprinkles Cupcakes and the 24 hour Sprinkles Cupcake ATM!
DISCOVERY CONSISTS NOT OF SEEKING NEW LANDS BUT SEEING WITH NEW EYES.
When we heard that Sprinkles Cupcakes would come to the Linq in Las Vegas in early 2014, we knew we had to check it out. We were especially excited about the 24 hour Sprinkles Cupcake ATM! Is this the future? Has anyone watched Idiocracy? This could get dangerous real fast. I am always having midnight cravings.
I remember when the cupcake craze started. We were still living on the east coast, and all the Cali peeps would be posting about their pretty Sprinkles cupcakes in their pretty little boxes. I was obviously jealous at the time. It was a while before we would try our first Sprinkles Cupcake when they opened a DC location. Years later when we actually lived in Los Angeles, where it all began, we didn’t even go near a Sprinkles Cupcake. I guess it’s like a lot of people who live in Florida who never go to the beach. We’ve recently been learning to be grateful for wherever we happen to live, but in our defense, we were also very busy checking out the other LA eats. :D
We went into the store and tried their ice cream sandwich cookies and then came out to the ATM to get a cupcake (Tip: The ATM will only take your money but does not give you receipts. If you want one and if the store is still open, order from inside).

Do I think they’re the best cupcakes in the world? They’re actually a bit on the heavy side for my taste, but if you’ve never had them, I would highly recommend you try them! I know I will always remember Sprinkles as one of the pioneers of the cupcake movement.

Have you tried the Sprinkles cupcake ATM? What’s the best cupcake you’ve ever had?
Those look so good! I have yet to experience a cupcake ATM but I love the thought!
:) Just one more reason to try out Vegas!
This looks amazing! I love going to the Sprinkles in Palo Alto when I need a cupcake fix :)
xo, Hima

I need to check it out there! I wonder if they are all pretty consistent or if some are better than others.
I remember I always got Sprinkles cupcakes whenever I visited David in Palo Alto. David also brought me a box of Sprinkles cupcakes for my birthday in Boston one year since he knew I like it. The cupcakes are rich but great to share with someone.
Yeah I agree. They are really rich.. I think you just have to be in the mood for it. Can’t have them all the time, but there are times I like these heavier kind.
You guys are too cute! And these look DELICIOUS! I love the cupcake ATM, so clever!
Thank you Leah! :D Have you been yet?
Negative! I haven’t been to Vegas in years! I assume this is rather new ;)
For Vegas it is.. but I do think they have a few others around the country that may have been there longer :)
I still haven’t ever made it to a cupcake shop. I guess I need to get on that.
Really? You’re so close right? I’m sure they have so many locations in SoCal. Though I never went in LA haha
I think the closest one to me is in Newport Beach. I’ll have to double check.
I have never really been a big fan of Sprinkles cupcakes either, but would have to experience getting one from an ATM. That is amazing. Did you get a chance to try their ice cream? I have been dying to try since ice cream is more my sweet preference anyway.
I think it’s just a fun experience. :) It’s like the future of food! I did try their ice cream. We tried their ice cream cookie sandwich. Overall, I felt like that was a bit overpriced and not worth it. I haven’t tried many of the flavors, so I wouldn’t rule it out altogether. May give it a couple more chances.
I want to use the cupcake ATM!! :) Your pictures are so cute…I love the will you share my cupcake.
You should come visit and check out the ATM! :) Maybe stop on the way to SD?
Ummm that is amazing!
You need to try it!! :)
