It’s made by combining gold cake, devil’s food cake, and almond cake with raspberry jelly, rum flavor, and a hint of anise, and it’s topped with homemade buttercream icing!
Since its founding in 1959 as a small, 24-hour window-service bakery by Mildred and Lloyd Haydel, Haydel’s Bakery has since become a legendary New Orleans-area institution for its wide variety of scratchmade cakes, cookies, pastries, and more family-recipe NOLA-inspired treats – and its king cakes are a Mardi Gras tradition for countless locals. Haydel’s is today run by the third-generation of the Haydel family, and owner David Haydel is the only baker in Louisiana who’s internationally certified as a Craftsman and Master Baker. In 2010, Haydel’s even broke the Guinness World Record for the World’s Largest King Cake!
