Haydels Bakery, Jefferson Highway (Grade B) Lacking in complexity and lack of flavor in the cake. Sucre, Uptown NOLA (Grade B+) Bread could have been more moist Manny Randazzos, Metairie (Grade A) Best cake thus far. Moist and full of cinnamon. Have had better icing but best overall thus far. Maurice's, Metairie (C-) DRY DRY DRY

^I agree with your assessment. I like Sucre's kingcake because it has more of a croissant/pastry type of taste. And normally I don't like cream cheese filling because most places put so much that it's goopy; but Sucre had the perfect amount.

BTW Manny Randazzo>>>>Nonna Randazzo. I haven't tried the Chalmatian Randazzo's kingcake yet.

The original location in Chalmette. Technically they are all originally from there, but Manny, Nonna, the one in Slidell, etc. aren't in Chalmette. Chalmette Randazzo's is the original Randazzo's.

The one in Chalmette was Randazzo's Goodchildren Bakery, they didn't re-open after the hurricane. The family members that ran that one opened Nonna's on the Northshore & just opened another Nonna's in Chalmette a couple of weeks ago.

La Boulangerie, Magazine St., Uptown (A)
New winner on best king cake tasted! They sold the French and the traditional NOLA style. I am only tasting NOLA style and this one was top notch. It was $13 for a small Sucre sized king cake (pretty small). Instead of a baby it had a porcelain musical instrument (the one Steve Urkel always played on Family Matters). It looked like I wasn't going to enjoy it because it had limited icing and sugar on the outside but when you cut into it you see a thin layer of cinnamony sugary goodness running throughout. It was very moist with good cinnamon flavor!

I have a suggestion for a stop on your journey. I haven't had it, but everything else they make is very good. O'Delice on Magazine between State and Webster.
