There has been one of these bad boys in the office nearly every day. No wonder this state is so fat.

This is probably is as large of a kingcake you can buy. Usually the ones we get in the office are about 2/3 the size.

Every few years I will pick up one of those. I'm sure our local versions aren't as good as the original though.

We've ordered from them to us in AL before. Great cakes. The Chocolate and peanut butter is amazing. |

I had a piece once at an ex's college dorm, was like wtf when I bit down on a baby. I had never heard of this.
I think they were pissed they wasted the baby on me.

Pretty much anywhere Mardi Gras is celebrated, I would imagine. They're more like a cinnamon roll on the inside, but they can have filling in them, too. |

It's more like a giant cinnamon roll covered in icing but there are a lot of different bakers that make their version and all are a little bit different.
These guys make my favorite version: https://www.randazzokingcake.com/categories/King-Cakes and https://www.kingcakes.com/ http://www.gambinos.com/shop/king-cake/traditional.aspx |

Around here it's called Rosca de Reyes.
 The red, yellow, and green things are candied nopalitos (slices of prickly pear cactus). |

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.

Get that disgusting nasty white crap off that cake. Apricot glaze and the colored sugar only.

Randazzos is my favorite, but difficult to get over there when the line isn't out of the door. So, on Friday, I picked up a Caluda King Cake from Coffee Cottage Catering in Elmwood, and it was amazing. There were only 3 cakes left as it was nearly 4 pm and luckily they had 1 "flavor of the week" left, which is what I wanted to try: White Chocolate Bread Pudding. I will try their other cakes.

I'm from California, and if you are from California you aren't much of anything . So what is the deal with the babies. I saw that in the Captain's photo with the babana. Help me out?

Help me out?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. Here's a bit more info on it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_cake#Trinket |
