King Cakepage 3 / 4
As time went on, gold and silver beans were replaced by a pink plastic baby and King Cake parties soon spread beyond high society. Neighborhood King Cake parties became popular, especially for children. On Twelfth Night, one family would host a King Cake party and whoever got the slice with the baby would host the next party and so on until Mardi Gras.
