For me it's from Antoine's in Gretna. Just their plain king cake, no filling. So moist and not too much cinnamon.




Had never even heard of the place before this year. Guy at work brought one in. It was mind-blowingly good.

The one I had from Alexander's in BR was fantastic. Best one I've had in a while.

A guy at work has been bringing in Caluda King Cakes the past few weeks. I think he is related to the family. He gets them from Zuppardos in Metairie. This week he brought a Bananas Foster King Cake. All of them have been really good.

New for me.

I really enjoyed the king cake from Breads on Oak. It was filled with cream cheese but it was delicately added, not overstuffed.

My favorite this year.

From Julie Annes in Shreveport. Surprised the shite out of me because everyone else up here is confused on what a king cake should look like.

On the LA cost this weekend st the condo. Had the first king cake I ever tasted today from publix.

Cream cheese with strawberries. Was pricey for what we got - like $8.00. Softer than a honeybun. Not a lot different than a strawberry strudel except it had colored sugar on the top flavored purple and yellow.

Had a string of plastic beads and a little plastic naked baby in a bag. We have eaten most of the pastry. Not sure what to do with the naked kid.

My favorite is always Haydels, but tomorrow were bringing a crawfish king cake to the Thoth parade. It comes from cottage catering in Harahan. Has some kind of crawfish filling baked in king cake dough, and it's topped with cheese and Parmesan that's been colored purple, green, and gold. Can't wait to try this out.
