Yep. It’s baked like a regular king cake but then they pop it in the fryer and give it a donut glaze. It’s amazing.

It's a Mardi Gras thing. There's a ring cake, and somewhere in the cake there is something that represents Jesus. On Mardi Gras at some point in the partying everyone gets a slice of king cake and whomever gets the Jesus thing is now King.

Most of that is probably wrong.


Also it's a thing in Louisiana because they do up Mardi Gras more than France.

These NFL playoffs may actually pull me back into the NFL. Sucks that my team growing up was Washington. I should probably just move on but I grew up with The Hogs and birthright rooting interest runs deep. However, I can’t root for Dan Snyder to succeed.

It's a cake that normally has a filling, covered with frosting and colored sugar, and a plastic baby is usually hidden in it. Here's the one from Mikey's that's a fried king cake. Imagine this filled with whatever filling you want that they have. Examples are strawberry, strawberry with cream cheese, blueberry, praline, lemon, chocolate, cinnamon, etc. All king cakes taste differently, but this pretty much tastes like a filled doughnut in a good way. This place actually does hide a small plastic baby in it, and by tradition, if you cut a slice and you get the baby, you're supposed to buy the next one.




They're very tasty.

I actually fell in love with the northern france style king cake, which is way plainer looking but basically a lemon tart. Tastes scrumptious and I end up with zero leftovers when taking to the office both because its smaller and because I get less people refusing to eat any because it looks too wild.

In really short terms, king cake is brioche baked into a ring. Sometimes there's a fruit or cream filling. There is icing on top and colored sugar.

It's not really cake. More like yeasted dough, similar to a cinnamon roll.

I can sympathize, as a lot of the time bright colored frosting is a signifier that it's the cheap overly sugary kind of frosting used on gross grocery store cakes. Now, I know that you can make good frosting that is wild coloration, but if I saw something somebody brought to work that was super colorful I'd give it a pass until I got reports otherwise.

I would eat the cake. You would have to stop me from eating the cake. If you tried to take the cake away from me you would probably be missing fingers on your hands.

Man, I never thought about Dry January in Australia, but I worked in a fine dining place on the waterfront in Sydney while I was there, and that stretch from Christmas to Valentine’s Day seemed to be a nonstop binge for all involved, you’ve got those, New Years, the Melbourne Cup, Australia Day, Boxing Day, like holy poo poo for a boozy country that’s way more temptation. Worst I’ve got for January is trying to abstain on, I dunno, MLK Jr day?
