Best King Cake in Louisville

Great. I'm writing it down for Derby Week - I'm going to throw out Tuesday as mint julep-off day. That's the day of Run for the Rose, but not too much else official Derby-Festival-wise. That would make it Tuesday, April 28, 2009. I think I have a venue in mind, one that would be close to downtown.

I'm in.........where's that muddler.

I was born in New Orleans and lived until my late 20s in rural Louisiana. Nobody there agrees on King Cakes. (My personal favorite is Rouse's Supermarket, which my friends in New Orleans hated. (Haydel's Bakery in New Orleans was supposed to be the best, and I hated it!)

The best way to find the best King Cake is to try them all and choose your favorite. I did not know any bakery in Louisville made these--I guess I'm going to have to try them...or hope that my mom will FedEx me a Rouse's cake for Mardi Gras.
