I have always heard these are the best king cakes to get from New Orleans. They sent me an email that their website is up for deliveries and I just placed my order. Just a heads up for anyone else interested.

I've had it. It was good, but not so great to wait in line for or go out of my way to order it.

I personally don’t like them. But I know I’m in the minority. It’s not your typical king cake.

i like them, but i wish they doubled the amount of filling.
I like the one from le petit sophie, assuming they are still opening and make it.

After hearing all the hype over the past several years, I finally decided to get one last year. It was OK, but I certainly wouldn't go out of my way for one. Amaretto Walnut from Keller's Bakery remains my favorite.

Do you have a link? I'm not seeing king cakes on the website?

Zupardos usually has them

They were apparently delayed opening sales as they’re in litigation regarding their branding on all their boxes/bags
King cakes are legit though. Have 2 reserved already

Manny randazzos and dong Phuong are 1a/1b for me
Posted on 12/21/21 at 8:41 pm to Louisiana Gator
It's a damn fine king cake but I think Antoine's is great too. In BR Calandros makes a great one too.

Lives up the hype imo

If it’s not McKenzie’s, then I don’t want it
Kidding - Dong Phuong are good - thx for the heads up

I grew Yo on McKenzies which is a very different king cake
Really didn’t eat king cake at all till I tried Dong Phuong

In terms of quality and ease of obtaining, it’s hard to beat a Calandro’s king cake.

The most over-rated garbage ever
There’s a lot of ever-rated Mardi Gras things, but ‘king cakes’ from that Vietnamese bakery are # 1

Im with you NOLA. I don’t get it. Give me a Randazzo’s or Haydel’s with a good cup of coffee any day over that shite.

If you're willing to go out of your way to get a really really food king cake, then drive to Springfield and get any flavor from Navarre's!

Hi, my name is Ernest Navarre, Jr. I starter making donuts in 1967 at 12 years of age. By time I was 17 my dad built me a little 504 square foot donut shop in Amite, Louisiania for $2,400. It was the last $2,400 dollars to his name. I opened on April 16, 1972 under the name Ernie's Donut King. After ten years I started working on my own king cake recipe. I worked on that recipe for 2 years and I feel that it is the best king cake recipe that I ever made. We been open at our current location since 29 October 2005 under the name Navarre's Famous King Cakes. PS., Years later I PAID BACK my father his initial $2,400 plus interest
