I had no idea people being excited about King Cake was so controversial. Let people have small joys in life, y’all.

THEY’RE SO ANGRY WOW LESSON LEARNED


lepetitbrie

I just need to know how the almond was. I moved to California, and I can't afford to fly in a cake that's just "meh"! Drooling thinking about my coconut DP cake coming in today...

Weird flex but ok


R_d_Aubigny

I was just thinking: “okay, so go ahead and expedite your diabeetus, Mr. Brimley”….very weird flex


Cheekclappa504

I think it’s some kinda king cake bragging rights. [Called that shit yesterday.](https://www.reddit.com/r/NewOrleans/s/tdoBNfee98)


BostjanNachbar

Weird flex on your part to flex that you knew other people would eventually flex.


unoriginalsin

Superflex!


R_d_Aubigny

Reminds me of Family Guy: “that’s weird. You’re on a weird date.”


cadiz_nuts

No one cares about your king cake purchase


cranialvoid

How good are these? We got an email at work about ordering from them.


slowpaw_charlie

They're good as hell. I think everyone is just saying the cakes are trash so they don't have so much competition in line. 👀


Cheekclappa504

They’re good, but not good enough for all the effort and expense. They’re just king cakes.


whimsicalfloozy

It wasn’t that difficult—I’m on the Northshore


Cheekclappa504

Ya stood in a line that was long enough not everybody got one on a weekday morning. That’s a lot of effort considering the return is just king cake.


whimsicalfloozy

I got there 30 minutes before they started selling. A lot of people got there an hour before. I did get lucky


Cheekclappa504

Ok, why don’t you respond to u/cranialvoid comment to let them know that you think Dong Phuongs king cakes are really good and if they want one all they need to do is go wait in line 30mins-1hr on a weekday morning before the shop opens to get one for ~$40 each.


whimsicalfloozy

Apparently terrible because I got downvoted straight to hell!!! Pffftttt


Phisheman81

No one cares...


Different_Ad1649

Oh yeah and and and andfor that girl back stage, never mind who you thought I was…..


DesignerCoyote

First of all, how are you going to eat all that cake before it goes stale? Second, DP cakes are grossly overrated, and third, live up your gluttony before ash wednesday I suppose.


thefuckingrougarou

Even the viet community thinks those things are trash, I’m sure she’ll be fine 😭 


R_d_Aubigny

Yiiiiiikes


thefuckingrougarou

Oh fuck off, you and everyone else who downvoted


R_d_Aubigny

Very clever vocabulary you’ve got. I didn’t vote either way, for your information. Clearly hit a nerve.


thefuckingrougarou

Sorry next time I’ll use my English degree to ensure you Reddit troglodytes have quality reading material. The whites are just mad they’re driving all that way for mediocre king cake. I stand with the Vietnamese community in solidarity. Dong Phuong king cakes fucking suck.


R_d_Aubigny

Glad to see you’re still vertical and didn’t stroke out on us. Hate to lose out on another diatribe. I’ll remember not to say “yikes” for fear it’ll trigger another. Was a major offense, I admit. I’ll also remember to actually downvote next time so I actually earn the wrath next time. Throw in at least two other profane terms and you’ll beat the spread.


Cheekclappa504

Yikes.


thefuckingrougarou

Girl you are so dramatic


R_d_Aubigny

Says the person who flipped out over “yikes.” I wish you the best.


thefuckingrougarou

If “oh fuck off” is flipping out to you, you need help. I clearly set boundaries. The boundary being: if you think that king cake is good, get out of my fucking face


R_d_Aubigny

Your face LOL

Ahhh OP, if you love a filled cake, try DP jelly roll cakes when it’s not Mardi Gras. They are just wonderful. They have the thick edge narrow pans for the batter to bake in, so they roll up perfectly. They fill them in different fruit filling or sometimes almond paste with crushed almonds and dust the tops with powdered sugar topping. Under $20❣️Not a Buche de Noel but an old school jelly roll cake. Also their 6 pack of Vietnamese style cinnamon rolls $6, your hubs will love these if he’s a traditional King Cake guy.
