this is scary looking.
New Orleanians are passionate about their king cakes. Variations on the Mardi Gras-season treat are made all over town.

Where do I find the recipe?
Go to http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2012/02/let-them-eat-quick-king-cake-recipe-mardi-gras.html?ref=search for a recipe for king cake.
http://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/King-Cake has a recipe that got pretty good reviews
I'm a little skeptical that it was the French who introduced King Cakes to Louisiana, but suspect that it was the Spanish. King Cakes are served primarily throughout the Latin world today.
