How Meche's King Cakes are made

Lafayette local news station KATC did a segment on Meche's King cakes, detailing how they're made.
I thought it was interesting, I never really gave it any thought how they filled them. I assumed it was a piping bag, I didn't realize they had big machines.

Make donut. Put Purple Green & Gold sprinkles. Incorrectly call it a king cake.

Manny Randazzo, Antoine’s bakery, and Dong Phuong are the epitome of what a king cake should be.

Without debating whether or not it's actually a cake. Technically, because they use yeast to make the dough rise, it should be considered fried bread rather than a cake. In spirit, it's a king cake. Even though it's got more in common with a donut.

Dong Phuong
Sat next to a lady while flying to San Francisco monday morning who had a couple Phuong king cakes. Wanted to sneak one off to the restroom and eat it when she fell asleep. Too nice of a lady so instead I planned to order one. No shipping dates...

One thing Meche's has, at least to the few I've been to, is good customer service and I love when the donuts are fresh and warm. People that work at Dunkin are degenerates.

I wondered how long it would take for this topic to pop up.

King cakes are also risen with yeast. Maybe that's what you meant, though.

You may as well go for the high score and start a thread about Mobile being "real" Mardi Gras while you're at it.
