A famous and delicious treat, king cake is an enriched brioche dough flattened out and filled with cinnamon and sugar before being rolled up and baked in a circle or oval shape, then topped with a glaze and decorated in purple, green, and gold.

"Carnival’s signature dessert, brought to New Orleans from France around 1870, was originally a simple pastry composed of brioche-style bread and light frosting.

If you’ve never had a New Orleans’ style king cake, I highly recommend ordering one from Randazzo’s. They are amazing! This year though, given my endeavors into bread making over the last year, I decided to try to make one myself. In my mind, I knew what I wanted - I wanted Randazzo’s, both the cake and the icing…
