King Cake - 01/19/2024

A king cake, also known as a three kings cake or a baby cake, is a cake associated in many countries with Epiphany, the celebration of the Twelfth Night after Christmas.[1] Traditionally made with brioche dough, in most cases a fève (lit. 'fava bean') such as a figurine representing the Christ Child, was hidden inside.[2] After the cake is cut, whoever finds the fève in their slice wins a prize.[3][2] In a nod to tradition, a plastic baby figurine is often taped to the packaging of commercially produced cakes. Modern fèves can be made of other materials, but always represent the King or Baby Jesus.[4]

Miguel brought the cake. He would also bring me lunch, a lot of lunch. Here is chicken and potatoes, rice and veg.
