King Arthur Flour King Cake Kit

The noble folks at King Arthur Flour are doing their part to celebrate Mardi Gras and doing New Orleans a good turn at the same time. The Vermont company is offering a King Cake kit that should help put the fat in your Fat Tuesday party.

King Arthur will donate $2 to the Salvation Army's hurricane relief efforts for each kit it sells through Fat Tuesday. Everything you need to whip up the traditional Mardi Gras treat — sweet dough mix, almond paste filling, sugar glaze and yellow, green and purple sugar for decorating — is included in the kit which sells for $18.95 or $17.95, if you purchase two or more. 

Presumably  you're expected to provide your own plastic baby to bake inside the treat. Call (800) 827-6836 to get your kit.

It was just the ticket for Mardi Gras in Los Angeles! ;>
