Nick January 17, 2013 FOOD, Nick

Well Mardi Gras is definitely fast approaching….Go ahead ask me how I know…..because KING CAKE IS EVERYWHERE

Well what’s your favorite King Cake?

I just tried this joint from Sucré,and it was great…

it had a nice taste, but may have been toooo sweet for me….

Sucré is made by hand and stuffed with a whipped cream cheese filling, the cakes from this Magazine Street or Lakeside bakery are a welcome update on the classic. Rich, buttery, and topped with a shimmering iridescent doughnut glaze, they just about glow. If you live out of town, they will gladly ship one to you just shop at shopsucre.com.
