That may be true for the last few years they were in business, but I can guarantee you, that wasn't always the case. If your are 50, or older, you would know. The cherries were on all king cakes sold and the baby was randomly placed.
Anyway, you should try the king cakes from the Tastee Donuts (McKenzies) on Harrison ave. in New Orleans. They have a ton of old McKenzies items. More then wht you will find elsewhere.
The Harrison Ave McKenzie's was the only McKenzie's we would go to. Are you telling me it has been replaced by a Tastee's and they are producing REAL McKenzie's cakes? If so, this is greatness because the last Tastee's McKenzie's replica I had was TERRIBLE!
And feo is right. The King Cake is a Catholic tradition and the baby is Jesus, but don't let that stop anyone from eating fiddy of them!
