GOURMET

KING CAKES

Mardis Gras weekend is fast approaching,

so it's time to celebrate with King Cakes.

Pint Size Bakery takes King Cakes

to the next level, creating their

elegant "Galettes des Rois."

Never mind the popular purple, green

and gold iced cakes that feature a

plastic baby Jesus on top.

Let's get elegant with the fancy pastries

from northern Brittany.

Christy's hand made galettes are authentic

French puff pastries filled with

frangipan and brandied cherries.

She also sells colorful Mardi Gras cupcakes,

but hurry -- they'll soon be gone till next year.

Laissez les bons temps rouler!
