-- In 2015 the Boudin King Cake was "invented" right here at kingcaker.com and boudinlink.com. It became a viral success and 2016 has shown that it is more than just a passing fad. When it became clear that we could not address the demand for this savory/sweet hybrid we brought our concept and recipe to Twin's Burgers and Sweets in Lafayette and they did a phenomenal job of putting the Original Boudin King Cake into production. (If you're interested in seeing the post that started it all you can click HERE.)-- Order yours from Twins @ www.boudinkingcakes.com or call the store @ 337-268-9488
It is truly a delight. Fresh baked bread that is light and airy is stuffed full of homemade boudin and topped with crispy cracklin before being baked to golden perfection. Drizzled with Louisiana's famous Steen's Pure Cane Syrup, you have yourself what has rightly been called the most Cajun of all foods. It seamlessly merges a handful of the culinary delights that Louisianans identify as part of their cultural identity.

We respect the various Boudin King Cake interpretations that have cropped up across the state (and even in East Texas!), but we suggest that you try the original! If you stop in their shop during the Mardi Gras season they have them warm and ready to go from a heated case or you can order them online and have one shipped to your door at www.boudinkingcakes.com.

The Boudin King Cake can only deserve 12 babies. How could it not?
The cake has a small trinket (often a small plastic baby, said to represent Baby Jesus) inside (or sometimes placed underneath), and the person who gets the piece of cake with the trinket has various privileges and obligations. In past generations the trinket might have been a coin or even a tiny golden bean. It has become customary in the Southern culture that whoever finds the trinket must provide the next king cake or host the next Mardi Gras party.
