Hi-Do is my favorite. We had an apple one the other day, it would have been great for breakfast had there been any left.I discovered Hi-Do this week and it’s my new favorite since Sucre closed.
I bought a bag of them about 10 years ago to share with out of town friends. With some of the leftovers, a co-worker and I "stuffed" a king cake since people liked cutting around the baby and leaving only an inch of cake just so they didn't "get the baby".Party City has the babies. Exactly what does one do with 144 of these things?

They're not in stock in any stores near me.

P.S. Yesterday I found king cakes in Publix down here in South Florida.
What about "Boudin King Cake?" - a savory and spicy version.Gross!

Lol. DH caught a moon pie at the parade yesterday.I went searching for the Moon Pie king cake last week and couldn't find it at our local Rouses. SAD!
So I bought Moon Pies instead!
I must be the only person that simply doesn't get the hype of a King Cake. I usually love any food coming out of Louisiana--especially New Orleans, just don't get King Cake.
Just tried one from Randazzo's (sp?) thinking that maybe I just haven't had "good" King Cake. Now, it was a LOT better than the one from Wal Mart and a bit better than one from a local bakery here but still didn't like it. Its just dry to me. This one was Blueberry Cream Cheese. The blueberry topping was really good. I am not sure where the cream cheese was. The cake part of was dry.
They have always reminded me of those old timey coffee cakes one could buy in the metal tin with plastic wrap over it. Made with cinnamon and had that white icing on top. Didn't like those either.
And maybe that's the point? Maybe they are supposed to be like a fancy coffee cake? And I just don't like coffee cake.
So, sorry to my neighbors to the west. Love your state, but ya'll can keep the King Cakes.
Although, making one at home sounds interesting.
