Do you celebrate Epiphany ?

[Aniko]

If so, what are you doing? What kind of king cake do you have? Are you a king or queen this year?

[Nightmares]

I doooooon't know what that is, so nope lmao

 

[AquaStrudel]

No, but we did in French class. Our teacher made us one of those cakes and it was pretty good! (but I didn't get to be queen :v)

 

[nintendofan85]

No, but I still might get a King Cake anyways because many people celebrate Mardi Gras around here because I'm not that far from New Orleans.

 

[Aniko]

Here we have 3 kinds of king cake: galette frangipane, fruit cake and white cake with icing.

What is that? Is it where you cut a cake with little plastic baby Jesus'? I celebrate that today.

On mine there was no baby Jesus but a ceramic character inside. Must be the same holiday XD

I dont get a King cake until the end of the Epiphany season, which is Fat Tuesday/ Mardi Gras/ the day before Lent starts...

We don't celebrate Mardi Gras anymore in my place, so sad, it was one of my favorite Holiday as a child.

[misakixx]

[tybalt_cake]

*also , i get gifts from the 3 kings , which is good because i also get from Santa

 

[Envy]

I've never heard of it. After reading up on it, I'm not a Christian, so I do not celebrate it.

Yes it's French, from the North, we also have one that looks like a rosca with fruits and another that looks like a white cake. (I'm Canadian btw)

Yes well you know, lot of not so religious people celebrate Christian holidays, it's more like a tradition in some countries.

 

[King Dorado]

hey, look what my Walmart has-- Roscas de Reyes!

(but the King's Cake ive had for Mardi Gras looks like the one in my signature (except not as much icing and more purple/gold/green sugar sprinkles...))

 

[Aquari]

ahhh i ate rocas and i got a baby jesus~

does that make me a queen?

 

[KaydeeKrunk]

I honestly hadn't heard of it until I saw Dad posting about it, I've never really been overly religious so yeah, I'd never heard of it before. I do enjoy cake, so I mean I would totally get in on that cake action. (I would totally choke on the figures though...)
