The History & Evolution of the Mardi Gras King Cake - AFAR

"A now-defunct pastry shop widely credited with igniting the mid-20th-century king-cake craze by introducing signature dough flavors such as cinnamon and praline and by pioneering the use of novelty fèves—first frozen Charlottes, then bisque babies and later plastic figurines—helping shape many modern king-cake traditions." - Robin Catalano
