The Boudin King Cake From Quebedeaux’s Is A Pairing You’d Only Find In Louisiana

Gumbo, jambalaya, beignets, crawfish... there are so many great foods that Louisiana is known for that it can be hard to keep track of them all. But what happens when you pair up two of the most iconic Louisiana foods? Well, it's a match made in heaven, of course - and you need to try it! Today we are headed over to Alexandria to check out a little Cajun restaurant called Quebedeaux's, where they make a boudin king cake that will rock your taste buds. Let's check it out.

For a truly authentic Cajun experience, a meal at Quebedeaux’s Boudin & Cracklin in Alexandria is an absolute must.

The casual eatery is part restaurant, part market, which is great because you’re going to want to stock up on all their specialty meats.

Featuring daily plate lunches and an assortment of seafood platters, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu here at Quebedeaux’s.

The chicken and sausage gumbo has been voted the best in central Louisiana, so you’ll certainly want a bowl to start your meal off.

As its name suggests, Quebedeaux’s specialize in cracklins and boudin.

You can order pork or chicken cracklins by the pound, which will be a great snack on the ride home.

The boudin balls here are a neighborhood favorite.

Both the pepper jack and the cream cheese and jalapeño stuffed boudin balls will make you a customer for life, but they also offer plain boudin balls and boudin rolls.

And there's more than just Cajun food - one of the most popular items on the menu are the tamales!

They sell out quickly though, so you’ll want to get there early to snag one (or two or three).

The boudin king cake is a seasonal specialty and is honestly one of the most unique foods you’ll find in Louisiana. It's worth a road trip from any corner of the state to try a slice.

The twist on the traditional king cake adds a boudin filling with a praline cracklin topping that’s the perfect marriage of iconic Louisiana foods that’s the best thing you never knew you needed.

You’ll never think about king cakes the same way again.
