    I live in Louisiana. King Cakes are EVERY WHERE right now. Hello Mardi Gras

    Here is a pick of my Mom all ready for the nursing home Mardi Gras parade:

    a part of me wants to weep uncontrollably over the fact that you don't know what that is....are there others like you in the world? I suddenly feel so blessed...
    Possibly, Minnesotans are quite sheltered, especially this time of year.

    I think this thread is triggering and insensitive. We should change the name to "Big Boned Tuesday"
    BWHAHAHAHAHA, this made me spit out the chocolate malt I was washing down the king cake with!

    I would eat this just as they look in the picture. No added sugar or cinnamon.

    I've heard of King Cake, but never saw a picture of one before. Nothing like that on the West Coast. But if I was in the Big Easy, I'd have one, along with my beignets & pralines!

    Gambino's Bakery will ship King Cakes to anywhere in the USA. http://www.gambinos.com/shop/default.php

    I think this might be the first Mardi Gras in a while that I don't get King Cake :sad:
    My family is from Mississippi, so I'm used to celebrating Mardi Gras, but I'm currently living in Denver. The last few years I've either ordered a King Cake to be delivered, or I've scoured the bakeries for weeks before-hand to try to find one. I didn't this year. Oh well. :ohwell:

    But I do think I'm gonna stop by Bayou Bob's and have a hurricane on the way home! :drinker: Laissez les bon temps rouler!
