Where to Get King Cake in New Orleans This Carnival Season

"There are actually two locations this year for King Cake Connection, a Where Black NOLA Eats installation for convening king cakes and Mardi Gras-themed desserts and products by Black-owned businesses in one place. One is at SoFAB, aka the Southern Food and Beverage Museum in Central City, and the other is at The Historic New Orleans Collection in the French Quarter. Customers can pick up cakes from pop-ups and vendors like Viola’s Heritage Breads, Adrian’s Bakery, and Hravenly Sweets at the former is Thursday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., and at THNOC daily except Monday from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m." - Beth D'Addono, Clair Lorell
