Mark Your Calendar; It’s Officially King Cake Season At Broad Street Bakery In Mississippi

Though there’s a lot to love about Mardi Gras, there’s no denying that king cake is one of the best things about the holiday. During the festival season, king cakes are sold in stores throughout the state; however, there are several spots that reign supreme in the realm of king cakes – and Broad Street Baking Company is one of them! Take a look:

A capital city favorite, Broad Street Baking Company is located in Banner Hall, a shopping mall in Jackson.

Both a bakery and a café, Broad Street Baking Company is known for its artisan breads, tasty desserts, and delicious breakfasts, lunches, and dinners.

All of which, by the way, is made by hand using all-natural ingredients.

Utilizing traditional European recipes and techniques and boasting a talented team, the bakery whips up a slew of original creations and rave-worthy sweets, including award-winning king cakes.

Constantly referred to as “the best in Mississippi,” the tasty cakes are anything but typical.

The signature king cakes come in three different flavors – two sweet and one savory.

In addition to the bakery’s original almond cream cheese king cake, there are traditional cinnamon king cakes.

Both the almond cream cheese and cinnamon king cakes start off with fresh-baked buttery brioche.

There are also crawfish dip king cakes. (Yep, you read that right!) As amazing as they sound, they’re made with cheddar jalapeño brioche and creamy crawfish dip filling.

And if the king cakes aren't enough to satisfy your seasonal sweet tooth, the king cake latte should do the trick!

Only available seasonally, the king cakes from Broad Street Baking Company are sold from the Epiphany through Mardi Gras, so time is of the essence if you want to indulge on one of these sweet (or savory) cakes.
