A king cake is a traditional cake served and eaten on Mardi Gras. Typically it is in a round shape, is a plain cake (like angel food, vanilla, or pound cake), and is decorates with a very sweet icing. Often, the decorations and icing colors are done up to match those of Mardi Gras (green, gold, and purple). There is a little toy baby or "king" buried into the cake. Whoever finds the baby is considered to be lucky and is "king" (or queen) for the day.

Why do people eat king cake during mardi gras?

People eat king cake during Mardi Gras as part of the celebration leading up to Lent, particularly in New Orleans and other areas with strong Carnival traditions. The cake, typically decorated in the colors of purple, green, and gold, symbolizes royalty and the visit of the Three Wise Men to the baby Jesus. A small figurine, often a baby, is hidden inside the cake, and the person who finds it is expected to host the next king cake party or provide the next cake, adding a fun social element to the tradition.
