History of the Mardi Gras King Cake: The tradition of sharing King Cake with family and friends during the Mardi Gras season began in the middle ages and was brought to the southern United States by colonists from France and Spain.

Enjoy the Mardi Gras experience by making your own homemade Mardi Gras King Cake and say I made it myself.
