Although we will try to keep the 1/4 sheet size (strawberry or raspberry) on hand, we recommend placing orders in advance.
We will have the King cakes available at Soulard Market, but haven't
determined the dates yet. Just look for the McArthur's Bakery Caffeine Cruiser.
McArthur’s, recently named America’s “Retail Bakery of the Year” by Baking Buyer Magazine, used their connections to consult with one of Louisiana’s premier retail bakeries to develop the perfect “King Cake” Soulard Style! This delicious confection is made with rich egg dough loaded with cream cheese, and strawberry or raspberry filling. The generous amounts of rich cream cheese and fruit fillings have turned these King Cakes from good to FANTASTIC! Topped with icing and the classic purple, green, and gold sugar; then decorated with festive beads, coins and a mask. It’s not just delicious, it is a party in a box! Of course no party or King Cake would be complete without the baby that is hidden inside each one. True to Louisiana tradition, whoever gets the baby buys the King Cake for next weeks party. Yes, the next week, in Louisiana they celebrate every week between Epiphany and Fat Tuesday! So, get with it St Louis, forget the January diet, its time to PARTY! |
