Things Happening Now - My New Orleans

My New Orleans

Before you know it, it will be Carnival. My wife and daughters recently visited the King Cake Hub and I am told it was delightful. They came home with a cake from Haydel’s, and I was well pleased. “It’s like what I imagine McKenzie’s used to taste like, except not dry” is what I said. I liked McKenzie’s king cakes, for the record.
It’s a great idea: a central location you can go and buy a king cake from a bunch of different bakeries. It’s the Tsukiji fish market for king cakes. And it works, too. You can either show up in person at 636 North Broad, at the Broad Theater, for socially-distanced shopping or you can order online and then show up in person at 636 North Broad to pick up your selection.

Louisiana Eats: The Rising Landscape of King Cake

Just as with everything in this ongoing pandemic, this year’s Covid Carnival is a far cry from anything we've seen in the past. But there is one constant that remains unchanged and that’s our beloved king cake. No balls, no parades but don’t worry – there is more king cake than ever to go around.
On this week’s show, we celebrate that sweet treat like never before. We begin with a tiny Northshore treasure, Morgan Street Bakery, where baker Christine Schmitz crafts a traditional French-style confection redolent with almond paste that's almost a lost art.

New Orleans celebrates Mardi Gras 2021 with king cake

The one constant among king cakes is that buried inside is a trinket, normally a plastic baby. Whoever gets the slice with the prize at a party, parade gathering or the office break room must buy the next cake. Between Jan. 6, the start of Carnival, and the Tuesday of Mardi Gras, this year Feb. 16, a high percentage of a New Orleanian's daily calorie intake comes from king cakes.
With offices mostly empty and every party a potential super spreader event, Samuels does see more people buying medium and individual-sized cakes than large ones.
Bywater Bakery, owned by baker Chaya Conrad, was prepared for a lackluster king cake season. That could mean trouble for her small cafe and bakery, which relies on the annual sales boost. So far, however, the season has been booming.

NOLA's King Cake Hub Expanding in 2021

As much as we hoped things would be back to normal by Mardi Gras season next year, it doesn't appear to be that way. Parades and balls are being cancelled all over the state, and the biggest blow to the economy and cultural heritage has to be in New Orleans. Even though we have our own fun and fabulous carnival season in Acadiana, it's going to be a shock to citizens and visitors alike when we won't get to celebrate on Fat Tuesday.
However, our hopes are not entirely dashed, because, as officials are pointing out, Mardi Gras is not cancelled, just Mardi Gras parades. And we got a glimpse of things to come during carnival season yesterday when New Orleans' King Cake Hub announced that not only were they going to open in 2021, but they are expanding to a much bigger and better location.

Brennan's Presents for the First Time, King Cakes, a Regal Trio to Satisfy Every Sweet Tooth

My New Orleans
12/16/2020
NEW ORLEANS (press release) – The dizzying array of King Cakes available throughout Louisiana during Carnival Season reveals an annual cultural obsession for the traditional tri-color pastry, but this year, for the first time in its 75-year history, the darling of the French Quarter will be joining in the celebratory sweetness and baking hundreds of the tender cakes in three distinct varieties. ‘All Hail to the King Cakes!’ will ring through the kitchen at Brennan’s as the exceptional artistry of Executive Corporate Pastry Chef Brett Gauthier and the culinary team reaches new levels in king cakery. Local aficionados may think they’ve seen –and tasted – it all, but each of these three kingly newcomers is destined to become true New Orleans royalty.
