"This is a great recipe if you want the real good ol' Louisiana King Cake. I made it almost exactly like the recipe and it was nearly perfect. The only thing I did different was that I separated the dough into 3 pieces and braided it, representing the 3 Kings. My only complaint is that it is very dense, which is why I gave it 4 stars, not 5. Perhaps this is just how the recipe is or maybe I made mistakes. It is very moist, but quite dense. It looked gorgeous and tasted lovely.
