Funny thing about Angelo's Bakery - I put the address in my GPS (5928 W. Metairie Avenue) and realized I had past in a thousand times - near the corner of Elise and W. Metairie in the corner of the shopping center. I had always meant to stop in the Bakery and now was my chance!
Angelo's Bakery offered up two king cakes for me to try - one traditional and one strawberry cream cheese. I picked these king cakes up on the right day as we were having a Mardi Gras Party that night at my mom's (she is on the Northshore parade route)...So her guests were so happy to review these king cakes with me (I know - it's a tough job!)
TRADITIONAL - light and fluffy with just enough icing and sprinkle. We appreciated coming back from the parade and having this treat!
FILLED - The cream cheese was a great blend and it was throughout the middle of the cake ensuring everyone got some in their piece. The strawberry filling was light and spread out - not to much, just enough.
If Strawberry Cream cheese isn't your thing, check out all the other filled flavors:
Apple - Bavarian Cream - Chocolate - Blueberry - Cherry - Cream Cheese - Lemon - Pecan - Pineapple - Praline - Raspberry - Strawberry
You can also have them shipped - see pricing here!
Ironically, my friend Dena got the baby from BOTH king cakes - so Dena, you better go get the next one from Angelo's!
Angelo's Bakery and Catering also has year round catering - check out their muffaletta ring, beautiful birthday and special occasion cakes, and more!
