Someone spreads the white icing. Someone else shakes on the red and green sugars. The kids debate which side needs more red. By the time the Christmas King Cake is ready to slice, everyone has had a hand in making dessert.
For someone who grew up in New Orleans and now lives miles away, that first cinnamon bite can bring back memories of family kitchens, office parties and friends dropping by for a slice. It’s a way to send a little of home to someone who won’t be at the table this year. For someone who’s never tried King Cake, decorating one together is an easy introduction.
A Gift for Someone Who Has Everything
Some people are hard to shop for because they already have what they need. A King Cake gives them something to look forward to when the box arrives. They can save it for a family dinner, set it out when friends stop by, or take it to work and invite everyone over for a slice. For a family spread across several states, sending a cake can be a small way to take part in a celebration from afar.
The cake also gives a holiday host one less dessert to plan. It can go from a decorating activity to the centerpiece of the dessert table. Set it out with coffee after dinner and let guests cut a slice as they linger. The red and green sugars make it feel at home alongside the rest of the Christmas spread.
Decorating Is Part of the Gift
KingKingCakes.com packs the white icing and the red and green sugars separately. Set everything on the table and let the group finish the cake. Younger kids can sprinkle the sugars, while someone else handles the icing. A few uneven stripes look right at home on a cake everyone helped decorate.
The Christmas kits come in traditional cinnamon and cream cheese and include beads, doubloons and a King Cake baby packed separately. Once the cake is decorated, it can sit in the center of the table until dessert. At an office gathering, it can go straight from the break room counter to a plate of slices to share.
From Twelfth Night to the Christmas Table
In New Orleans, King Cake is traditionally shared during Carnival, which begins on Twelfth Night, January 6. The Christmas kit gives that familiar cake a holiday look with white icing and red and green sugars.
Sending King Cakes to Clients or Employees
For a New Orleans business, the gift can tell a little about where the company comes from. A client who has never visited gets to try a local favorite. A former coworker who moved away gets something they may remember from the break room. The same gift can work for both, and each recipient can choose when to decorate and share it.
Businesses can send cakes to multiple addresses on one invoice. Start with an estimated quantity. The recipient list can come later, and KingKingCakes.com will check the addresses, arrange shipping and track the packages.
