Carnival Season's Back!


Starting Twelfth Night, King Cake (and it should be capitalized) is back.  The quick cultural tutorial: holidays follow the holidays follow the holidays.  Whoever gets the baby (there's a plastic baby inside) has to buy the next King Cake.

This one is from Wholefoods.  It's cinnamon flavored.  Other flavors include raspberry cream cheese (berry chantilly) and praline pecan.  Basically, it's flour and eggs and SUGAR.  (And therefore fun.)  I believe you can see the grease.  Add butter to that list of ingredients.

I love how psychedelic it looks.
