One of my development teams added a feature into our mobile app that during Mardi Gras if you shook your phone King Cake Babies would dance on the screen. We had some people who aren't familiar with these babies and thought it was creepy so we cut it out.  OK, even though I live North of the Mason Dixon Line, I don't think I'm a Yankee.

Help me out?You place the baby somewhere in the cake. Whoever gets the piece with the baby buys the next King Cake. I've seen some people use an uncooked red bean in place of a baby, though. |

It's supposed to be good luck to get it, but mainly we use it as a way to determine who has to buy the next one. Due to law suits, most places leave the baby out to the side now a days and leave the purchaser to stick it in the king cake.
