  • Mardi Gras King Cake. This is the most traditional and famous dessert of the Mardi Gras celebration. If you’ve never had one, it’s sort of like a giant, one-layer cinnamon roll – soft, sweet, and delicious.
  • King Cake Oreo Balls. Oreo truffles are simple to make but so darn good! They’re decadent, wonderfully chocolatey, and a fun Mardi Gras take on your average Oreo truffle.
  • Mardi Gras Cupcake Recipes (King Cake Cupcakes) These King Cake-inspired cupcakes are perfect for your Fat Tuesday celebrations. Want to save this recipe?
  • Mardi Gras Trifle. Layered desserts are always a good idea. You get different flavors and textures in every bite, like Mardi Gras in your mouth! This trifle is inspired by the colors of Mardi Gras, with vibrant vanilla cupcakes layered with your choice of creamy frosting.
  • New Orleans-Style Beignets. If you can’t make it to Cafe Du Monde, don’t worry! You can make amazing New Orleans- style beignets right at home. Like a doughnut, beignets are sweet, fried dough.
  • King Cake Dip. This cakey, tangy cinnamon dip is so good you can eat it by itself. However, you top it with pecans and caramel, so it’s super indulgent.
  • Mardi Gras King Cake Pecan Praline Puff Pastry. This pecan praline puff pastry is flaky, creamy, nutty, caramelly, and delicious. It’s topped with vanilla icing and sanding sugar in Mardi Gras colors.
  • King Cake Cheesecake Bars. If you don’t want to fuss with yeast and proofing, skip the traditional King Cake and make these cheesecake bars instead! Full of incredible flavor and a luscious creamy texture, you can even customize this recipe with fruit or a different pre-made dough.
  • King Cake Cookies. Butter cookies are always a crowd-pleaser. And these are perfect for your Mardi Gras party. The shortbread is buttery and delicious, featuring warm notes of nutmeg (or cinnamon), and the colorful royal icing is light and lemony.
  • Mardi Gras Muddy Buddies. Muddy Buddies, Puppy Chow, whatever you call them, they’re delicious and addictive. That makes them perfect for a celebration like Fat Tuesday.
