The King Cake is a brioche-style cake traditionally made throughout the State of Louisiana during the weeks prior to Mardi Gras.
Today, thousands of king cakes are shipped all over the world. In the early 1990s, when large numbers of the cakes started being shipped to other cities, bakeries stopped placing the baby inside the cake for fear that people unfamiliar with our local customs might choke on the trinket.
