Where to Order King Cake Near Lafayette
Our real estate agents are excited about Mardi Gras 2025. We hope you are, too!
You don't have to wait until "Fat Tuesday" to order a traditional King Cake near Lafayette, but many Lafayette bakers only offer the iconic "festive" King Cake around that time. Luckily, Lafayette homes for sale are within a short drive of some of Louisiana's best bakeries, so you have your pick!
Before a full day of Lafayette open houses, why not stop by a beloved local bakery for a cup of coffee and a slice of King Cake? Let's take a look at a few local Lafayette bakeries to try out:
- Keller's Bakery Downtown – 1012 Jefferson Street, Lafayette, LA 70501
Keller's Bakery Downtown has a history that stretches all the way back to the 1760s. That's when the original owners arrived from the Alsace region of France, world famous for its pastries. The original bakery opened in 1895 in nearby Abbeville, Louisiana. Since then, Keller's Bakery has been in lots of major cities throughout the state. The King Cakes are individually made from a Danish pastry recipe dating back more than 120 years. Each cake takes multiple days to prepare, thanks to the 15 exacting steps involved in their creation! - Poupart Bakery, Inc. – 1902 West Pinhook Road, Lafayette, LA 70508
Poupart Bakery, Inc. is a local Lafayette bakery with 40 years of scrumptious history, making fine French pastries in a classic style. They are perhaps best known for their hot breakfast beignets and fresh roasted French coffee. King Cakes are, as always, one of the main attractions. Delivered nationwide in the form of a round puff pastry, the almond filling can't be beat. Poupart's delivery King Cakes should be warmed in the oven before eating. The special Mardi Gras King Cake uses a ring of multi-colored brioche dough and your choice of traditional fillings. - Rickey Meche's Donut King – 402 Guilbeau Road, Lafayette, LA 70506
Rickey Meche's Donut King offers your choice of dining in both indoors and outdoors or in-store pickup. Even though it is best known for donuts most of the year, when Mardi Gras time rolls around, Rickey Meche's has been known to win #1 or #2 honors in neighborhood polls for the best King Cake. This is the kind of place that's even open on Christmas Eve because families love what they have to offer. They will also be part of a big King Cake Tasting event at the end of February, so check out the website for further information! - Caroline's Cookies – 1921 Kaliste Saloom Suite 124, Lafayette, LA 70508
Caroline's Cookies stands out in the busy Lafayette baking scene as the vision of a 21-year-old entrepreneur whose tasty, creamy cookies have truly taken the area by storm. In addition to its spacious and welcoming Lafayette location, there are two more to visit in Baton Rouge and elsewhere. The store launched back when owner Caroline Merryman was just 19, and since then, it has won a huge following for its delicious baked treats! - Keller's Bakery of Youngsville – 627 Lafayette Street, Youngsville, LA 70592
Keller's Bakery of Youngsville is owned by Doug and Kristie Shores, who believe "Being Sweet to You Is Our Business." A good old-fashioned bakery with a little bit of everything, it has cakes, cookies, and customized pastries for all your special event needs. Naturally, that also includes King Cakes, which are available throughout the year and during the Mardi Gras season. King Cakes come with or without nuts and have custom colors.
