Reviews of Caluda's King Cake
Brandie Conlee
Ordered a King cake for the office since it was one of my coworker's birthdays. Everyone raved about how good it was! It was one of the best I've ever had. I definitely recommend getting the parade kit where you get to decorate it yourself when it arrives. It arrived quickly and in perfect condition. It was so fresh, and I plan to order from them next year. I hate I couldn't be in New Orleans during King Cake season, but Caluda's made me feel like I was there.
Autumn Beasley
So, so good. I appreciate the icing and sprinkles were packaged separately so when it arrived we could decorate the cake! That way there was no mess and no damage during shipping! Wished I’d have a taken a photo, but the cake didn’t last long…
Wendy D.
What an amazing bakery! The King Cakes are delicious and there is so many to choose from! You have to try one!

Caluda's King Cake is king! I love that their dough holds up to the icing, so you don't end up with those soggy pieces, and they use granulated sugar on their traditional, not wax sprinkles like some competitors. They do some wild flavors each week leading up to Mardi Gras, and offer a daily selection of traditional and filled cakes. No matter what you pick, you won't be disappointed!
Stephanie D
Can be dry and skimpy on filling. Their dough recipe is identical to the Randazzos king cakes but the icing is different. It’s overly sweet and gives everyone heartburn. I noticed their icing is not placed all over the king cake so maybe that’s why it dries out so quickly but if you had any more of that icing it would be too much. It’s an ok alternative if you don’t want to stand in long lines at Manny’s or drive to Slidell but their item’s definitely seem mass produced. If they had better icing recipe they would top tier with the others.

I don’t know where to start, the good or the bad. I’m a fan of Caluda’s King Cakes, particularly the cream cheese and the praline/cream cheese. I bought a praline/cream cheese king cake today and it was amazing, just as expected. It was very fresh and moist. I also bought the flavor of the week, chocolate chip cookie dough. It was a huge disappointment, just a big conglomerate of bread with hardly any cookie dough to be found. When I was finally able to find some cookie dough, it tasted like chocolate only. I didn’t get any hint of cookie dough. It also was a bit dry. After today, I think I’ll pass on trying any more flavors of week and stick to what I know is good.

I started getting their King Cakes last year at Costco in Lafayette. I moved out of state and was craving one. The one I received was just like if not better than the one in the store. The icing on the side is great too! Just the cure for being homesick.
Ahmad Moshrif
Well, it's a good cake. But it's not that surprisingly an outstanding cake.
We've found that the king's cake was below our first expectations. It is suitable for the people who like the lemony taste more than a pure sugary taste.
Keira Y
Greatness! My king cake was amazing and so was the customer service. I will order again soon.
Mike V
Love the cakes and now that we don’t live in town we order king cakes regularly from local NOLA bakery’s. Caluda’s has a very good king cake and have always like them.
When we ordered two cakes this time I decided to pay the extra money (I think I was like $5) for the Mardi Gras package which is 3 beads, 2 doubloons, wooden coin, and a plastic cup all of which have their logo / advertisement on.
This is just facts, what I have a problem with is them smashing the cup in the cake. So I paid extra for their advertisement to smash the middle of my cakes..... Boooo! See Photos.
Do yourself a favor if you’re ordering from out of town, pass on the extra whatever and just get the cake.
I know next time I will.
Update: 1/24/19
Thanks for review your process, those of us who don’t have easy access to the “Goods” appreciate it.
Who Dat!

Absolutely LOVE Caluda’s for king cakes!! I am from NOLA and have tried other bakeries for shipping king cakes. By far the best experience I have had has been with Caluda’s. Fresh, quality ingredients, packaged with care, great communication with their customers. We send multiple shipments every year to our out of state friends and they have become fans as well. It’s no wonder this place was recommended to me by a NOLA 5-star chef! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great king cake!
Frank Eddy
I ordered the cake from Oakland CA. I kept my expectations low as it was being shipped cross country. My husband wanted the strawberry cream filled cake.
The cake arrived with the frosting and sugar in the side. We decorated ourselves which was way better as we controlled the amount of frosting. The frost was delicious! I had it on toast the next morning.
The cake arrived as stated and it was delicious. Our guests are every last piece. Many compliments from Nola natives and first time king cake eaters.
I would definitely order a cake from Claudia’s again.
Great value and delicious cake!
Julianne Jordan
I have ordered king cakes for years from another notorious bakery in NOLA. That place was sold out which led me to Caluda’s. This king cake traveled all the way to Raleigh, NC and exceeded my expectations. There was very slight melting of the icing which was my delivery driver’s fault for setting it in the sun. Nonetheless, best king cake I have ordered from New Orleans. Fluffy, fresh, and delicious! Caluda’s is my new go-to!
Disberon
I've had Caluda's before and always enjoy their king cakes.
This year I sent 1 to a friend in Virginia who's never had one. They didn't know what to expect. They were excited when it arrived and said it was outstanding. They got to enjoy it along with their friends, some who have never heard of a king cake, to their surprise. Shipping was fast and the price was decent especially for one of the best cakes in the city. I will always recommend Caluda's.
Rewa Cooper
We ordered a cream cheese king cake to be shipped to us in California. The presentation was fun, the cake was delish and it stayed fresh for many days. The cake came on time and there were no shipping issues. I just ordered another cake for Super Bowl, trying the praline this time. We will continue to order from this location in the future.
Thank You
Katherine Rhatigan
We ordered a Caluda's King Cake and it was fabulous! We New Yorkers have been buying King Cakes from Louisiana for many years and this is the best one we have ever had. We'll be back next year!
Karen Lovett
As a New Orleans native, king cakes have been a family tradition for years. And it has been a tradition to send one to my son, who lives in Miami, every year on his birthday, as it falls during the Mardi Gras season. For several years, I have had his ‘birthday cake’ delivered on the day of his birthday from Claudia’s. And every year he tells me it’s “ the best king cake I’ve ever sent.” This year I hesitated because he was leaving town the day after his birthday, but of course I couldn’t break tradition. I even researched how he could freeze it, if he wanted to. But that turned out to be unnecessary. Instead, he brought it with him, to a friends house to share. He said it was a huge hit and even the parents of his friends joined in and just loved the cake.
Claudia is reasonably priced, delivered on time, and always fresh and tasty. Highly recommend
Angela Smith
Thank you Caluda’s! I was craving a king cake and you never disappoint! Thanks for the fast shipping too!
Forres McGraw
King cakes are good overall. However, Caluda's King Cakes are the absolute greatest I've ever tasted. You want to make friends? Share a Caluda's King Cake with them. Guaranteed friend for life!
JaWay Val
Ordered king in the mail it was so good and moist probably one of the better ones I have had recently. My favorite probably old school traditional.
Alison Kuemmel
I sent a cream cheese king cake to my aunt and uncle out of town, and they were so happy with it. They loved that the icing was on the side so the king cake arrived really fresh and not soggy. It arrived on the scheduled day without any trouble. Happy Mardi Gras!!
Vincent Boyle
I am SO happy with Caluda's for getting my King Cakes to me, my scattered family and friends. Getting a taste of home when you can't be back in S. Louisiana is a pure blessing and the Caluda's King Cake delivery makes everybody's day brighter! Thanks Caluda's much luv!
Tiffeney Borja
Caluda's has the absolute BEST king cakes around!!! We bought one from Zuppardos and we're hooked. We have tried probably everyone they make!!! Definitely need to give them a try your will not be disappointed!
Alice G
Slipped upon an article about the best 10 places in Nola to get a King Cake. Clauda's King Cake was in the line up. I researched, read reviews and voted Clauda's as my option to waste money on something I can truly live without.
Ordered the Strawberry cream cheese, did the overnight shipping. Anyway The Dang King Cake was a hit. I have no complaints to offer whatsoever.
Michael Dinh
It was a good experience. The flavored king cake sold out but, I was able to buy the traditional one. The lady there was nice and actually encouraged you to buy more king cake unlike Dong Phuong where you are limited 3 per person.
Ellen Cool
I used to live in Louisiana and wanted to introduce my friends in western New York to an authentic king cake. I ordered a traditional king cake and a praline cream cheese king cake from Caluda's on two separate occasions this year and they were absolutely delicious! The first time, I called the bakery directly to order because I was unfamiliar with how shipping worked. I was greeted by a friendly person who took good care of me. Both times, the cakes were delivered on-time, fresh, and in great shape. I would definitely order from Caluda's again!
Jan Woodall
I ordered a Caluda’s King Cake & had it shipped to our daughter’s friends in Napa, California. Our daughter said that it was SO good & her friends were very impressed! Unfortunately, it did arrive pretty damaged, but it’s the taste that really matters, right? I’ll be ordering again soon, this time for our daughter. She misses home & this King Cake will give her a little taste of heaven. I’ll just cross my fingers that this one arrives safely!
Kelley (The Krow)
I ordered a king cake to send to a friend out of state and she absolutely loved it. It came with a cute little MG cup and set of beads and the whole thing was pretty decently priced, all things considered. When I choose the king cake, I am ALWAYS choosing cream cheese stuff Caluda's king cake. Oh and I love that they sell those mini king cakes as well too. Caluda's is my personal preference of NOLA king cake and I'm from NOLA so I've had them all!
JavaTech Corporation
I'm a northerner who was turned on to King Cake as a young person working with an oil and gas engineer whose offices were based in Washington state, but who worked out of Louisiana. Our firm's attorney in Louisiana sent us King Cake from New Orleans and I was enchanted (we don't have those things up here). I have been on a hunt ever since to find a King Cake that rivaled that first experience. Caluda's surpassed it this week. I ordered the King Cake with strawberry and cream cheese. You could smell the scratch made yeast dough when you opened the box. I had to have it shipped to me, which they did overnight, and it was like it just came out of the oven. The strawberries are real and the cream cheese has just the right tang. Bless you Caluda's, for doing such fine work in a difficult economic environment. You have my business from now on. Leah
Chasity J.
Caluda's is the best king cake I've ever consumed. Their pastries are equally amazing. Their pastries always taste as though they were made from scratch the moment you've ordered them.
I highly recommend Caluda's King Cakes and will always be a buyer.
kindall rigsby
i live in nyc but am a new orleans native and just received my Caluda's king cake in the mail!! need less to say, I AM OBSESSED. a piece of home in my NYC apartment has made me so happy. it arrived in perfect condition, nice and moist with the icing traditionally placed (not too litte, not too much.) its snowing outside but so cozy in my belly thanks to Caludas!
S Kutzner
Always delicious King Cakes, delivered quickly … my three children enjoyed their individual King Cakes - we all marvel at the high quality consistency - bringing New Orleans Mardi Gras to us every year no matter where we are. Highly professional Caludas - thank you
Jamie H
I had a king cake shipped to my family out of town. They loved it. It arrived in time and still tasted fresh on the 3rd day. Definitely will order again.
Sonni Parker
A local treat place (bonejour BSL) in my town sells these and I’ve never heard of them but BOY I was hooked. I tell everyone about Caluda’s now! Best king cake I’ve ever had and that’s hard comparing to manny’s, haha.
Joanna S
This is one of the best king cakes I have ordered. The king cake itself is not too sweet and the filling is not overbearing. I will definitely be a returning customer
Debra Thorstenson
I'm a New Orleans native now living in Florence AL. I was shopping in our Walmart store on Thursday and found your king cake. At first thought it was a little pricey but I just had to have it. Besides if I was to order online it would cost about the same.
Your King Cake is amazingly delicious. So fresh, tasty and the icing great. We only have 2 pieces left. I'm hoping that when I go back tomorrow (Saturday) there is more. I posted on Facebook & members of my family are asking me to ship them one of your king cakes.
Great job Caluda's.
Thanks for sending your king cakes to Walmart on Cloverdale Road Florence AL.
René Ender
Amazing king cakes…. Shipped one all the way to Bozeman MT
Karen Lovett
Have a king cake from Caluda's delivered to my son for his birthday every year. He thinks this is the best king cake of all I've ever sent throughout the years. The price is correct. Always fresh and fully enjoyed!
Here is what he texted me, “ The king cake was amazing!!!! So so good. I love the tradition and it was good til the last piece!”
Mandy Dunnam
Had one of these king cakes shipped all the way to Oregon to my Mardi Gras loving family. They loved it and said it was very delicious. Thank you so much for making it easy for me to send a little piece of Mardi Gras to my loved ones so far away. ❤️
Christian Berry
The praline and cream cheese king cake was absolutely delicious.
The box that it was delivered in was damaged, the king cake was crushed on the side of the damaged box.
The cellophane wasn't broken and so thankful could enjoy the cake.
Jenna Mire
I'm new to New Orleans so I've been making my rounds taste-testing all of the "must have" king cakes around town. Caluda's is by far my favorite! Its super moist and the icing is never stale. I love the traditional but I've had the praline too and that was excellent! I even sent a cake to my family in Tennessee and it arrived just as fresh as if it were picked up directly from the bakery. I would highly recommend trying Caluda's out!
Paula Watson
I work at assisted living part time as a dietary aid in order to visit my Dad in person and love on the residents during this isolated time from their families. A sweet grand daughter sent a cake from you all for the residents. so enjoyed but the Grand Dad somehow did not get a piece. A little angel from your company took it upon herself to send a personal cake to him! It arrived and we celebrated the love of family, appreciation of the grand daughter and how precious people and companies are all around us if we look for the good! Thank you festive company and sweet person!
Michelle George
The ordering process was super easy. I had it delivered on a Friday, but had to go out of town before it arrived. I didn’t get to eat it until Monday. It was still fresh and delicious. Definitely going to order again next year!
Marguerite White
What a FANTASTIC company! I have ordered several King Cakes from this company this year so I didn't hesitate to order one for an AU/LSU game Gender Reveal Party for my son and daughter in law. They are LSU grads(as well as my other son) while my husband and I are AU grads (my daughter also attends AU)! I had ordered this cake to be delivered to Alabama on Oct 30. Since NO was hit by an almost Cat 3 hurricane (Zeta) on Wed., I thought no way was I going to be able to receive the cake. I was expecting a nice email offering a refund or discount or something but NEVER did I think they would be able to not only fill the order but have it arrive PERFECT as always! Congratulations on not only producing a PERFECT product but having FANTASTIC customer service as well! You ROCK!
Cheryl Patterson Zaic
I order a King Cake every year from Caluda’s to be shipped to New England. I have tried some other King Cakes but have not found their fillings and frostings to be as tasty as Caluda’s. The size of the cake is generous. The dates shipments were promised have been received on time. I have had nothing but pleasant experiences with Caluda’s and will continue to purchase its King Cakes annually.
Ntzaki Potter
When we're not craving a traditional King Cake from one of our other favorite bakeries, we love the raspberry King Cake with cream cheese filling from Caluda's. That raspberry hits the perfect fruity note every time. The cake itself is moist and soft. We usually pick ours up at King Cake Hub.
Traci Howerton
I love Caluda's King Cakes! They are hands down the best in the city! Not only do they have delicious sweet flavors, but the savory options are a must try as well! My favorites are the bananas fosters and the strawberry cream cheese. I have shipped Caluda's King Cakes to family out of town on several occasions and they have always arrived fresh and on time. If you're in the mood for a king cake, this is THE place! I also must commend the generosity of John Caluda and his staff as they are always donating their king cakes, catering items and time to help the animals at Animal Rescue New Orleans (ARNO), so thank you!!!
Jennifer Pezzarossi
We had most our king cakes from here this carnival season. They are delicious. Love love the bananas foster! That they do once a year . That's a must try for sure. I really enjoyed their raspberry filled. I was happy to be able to pick these up on the North Shore too at one of their Satellite locations during the season very helpful.
no123girl
I love the King Cakes, the traditional and of course my favorite is the cream cheese; I only order these 2 b/c I am not a fan of ANY other fillings at ANY other bakeries. But I was born/raised in New Orleans and have had the privilege tasting ALL the bakeries that make king cakes BUT Caluda's king cakes are the freshest/tastiest EVER that you will find. I've had wonderful experiences when picking up my king cakes b/c living here I have had first hand meeting the hard working employees who are constantly busy- NON-STOP. I applaud the ones who also get up very early in the morning to make the delicious king cakes as well. I'm so glad I live close enough to pick up my order that they always have ready w/NO problems. Such very good and pleasant service. CALUDA'S ROCK!
Jackson Burnside
Just received a Caluda’s King Cake yesterday. It was sent via FedEx and arrived in great shape. It was soft and fresh. Can’t wait to order again!
Mary Jacob
As a local, I believe Caluda's has the best king cake in the gno area. Don't be afraid to try the regular one. This king cake doesn't require added fillings to love - it's perfectly flavored with the perfect amount of cinnamon and the icing is the bomb! This is the real deal. I always ship some to friends and family that no longer live here and they are always a huge hit.
Marty Carr
They were extremely friendly and helpful. The Ukraine King cake was amazing. This is where I will but all my king cakes in the future!
Walt Ehrhardt
We ordered a kingcake for 2 family members who live out of town (GA & TX). They are NOLA natives. During this pandemic I thot they needed a boost to morale. I ordered the regular kingcake and they get to have fun frosting it their way. Loved it. Their comments were “best king cake ever”. I’m so pleased with that result. I’ll definitely send more. Thanks Caludas. Carol Ehrhardt.
Lisa Rodriguez
Old School king cake is the perfect! #McKenzieFlashbacks
Heidi Dragon
BEST King Cake!!! Believe me, I tried A LOT of them while in New Orleans for Mardi Gras and it was so good I couldn't stop eating it at this one crawfish boil. I ordered one to be delivered to me in Raleigh NC this year after the Epiphany... It was as great as I remembered! Friend from NOLA who lives here now ordered 2 different king cakes from 2 different places (both gross) and she was so happy I brought this over to her house to share! <3
Jennifer Titilah
Love Caluda's King Cake. The cakes are decorated beautifully and are DELICIOUS! I order the original with none of the fancy stuff. I like them true to original flavor, and Caluda's does it excellently. We only order from these guys now.
Jeff
I cannot say enough about the quality of King Cake as well as the customer service from John and his team. My cake showed up damaged from shipping and the random warm day. I sent an email just to let them know about it in case it could help another customer in the future as it wasn't the bakeries fault. John called me within an hour and then sent me another cake that night to apologize for what I had received. Amazing!!
Laura Muller
Best king cake EVER! We've purchased both the traditional and cream cheese filled, which are both delicious. We also ship these to our family members for Mardi Gras and they are always fresh when recieved. Online ordering is very easy as well. I've even started ordering them for our Thanksgiving and Christmas parties!!
S Anne Johnson
I TOTALLY disagree with the review discouraging king cake shipment. I am from the New Orleans area but live in the Bay Area now. I had a king cake shipped overnight to my work so my colleagues could have a taste of an authentic Mardi Gras experience. And it was fresh and delicious and everyone loved it! Both thumbs up. Hope the fellow who got the baby orders from Caluda's next year!
Jean Jacobs
I've purchased Mardi Gras King Cakes from Caluda's for 8 years, some for myself and several shipped to friends and family. This is the 3rd year in a row that I've bought their Halloween King Cake too. Everytime I send them, the recipients always love them as much as I do. I'll keep buying and sending them as long as I'm able to. The quality and service at Caluda's is excellent!
Jenna Evans
As a Gulf coast native, it was important to me to provide my open house guests with the most authentic NOLA King Cake experience in Northwest Arkansas. Caluda's cakes arrived as scheduled, overnight , and most importantly FRESH. We chose two raspberry cheesecakes. I upgraded to the package that receives a few doubloons and three beads, history of king cake card and cup. They made great giveaways for my guests. I'll be using you again next year! Laissez les bon temp roulez! MERCI!
Slater Swartwood
It is by far the best King Cake in New Orleans. During Mardi Gras I am there about every three days and I also mail King Cake to all my family and friends across the country. The people at Caluda’s are so nice and accommodating it just makes doing business with them such a pleasure.
cindi ward
We've ordered MANY times and never been disappointed! The King cakes are the absolute best and one of our favorite gifts to give! Thank you for happiness, delivered! Until next time..... ♡
Anasa Davis
Introduced to Caluda's by my sister in 2016, and I've been a loyal buyer ever since. They're moisted, flavorful melt in your mouth fantastic! I've moved out of state and I ordered for my co-workers as their introduction to king cakes... everything else will probably be a let down!!🙂 …
Dawn Sisung
Hands down , the best king cake in the city. I have sent king cakes to family over many years and now they only request Caluda's. Our office has also voted Caluda's as the best. Great job!
Marilyn Robins
I ordered two king cakes to be sent to NY, in honor of an upcoming NOLA wedding. My daughter and her office mates were surprised and thrilled. They love your king cakes! Thank you so much!
Rod Stieffel
Great people - EXCELLENT King Cakes - excellent service!
Donell Chagnard
Bought two cream cheese king cakes from our local Walmart in Shreveport and they were excellent and fresh. I’m a New Orleans native and your king cake was awesome!
Open Arms Ministries Slidell
My daughter and her family live in Bossier City and can’t not find a decent king cake there. I ordered and had a Caluda’s king cake sent into them. They loved it!!! So happy
T P
I have always been a fan of traditional king cakes. Caluda’s delivers every time....delicious. I also love that fact the their king cakes can be purchased at local retailers!
Kathy Jaramillo
I'd rate this a perfect 10 if I could because out of every other bakery king cake that I tried Caludas is the best .
Hands down the best . Moist ,fresh and not an overbearing cinnamon roll taste like most other bakeries King cakes taste like . Cream cheese not over bearing but enough to satisfy your taste buds Not to mention the icing and sprinkles in top absolutely Awesome ! Definitely a returning customer for life !
Candy Thompson
Years ago we lived in NO and loved the King Cakes (crawfish and regular) that we got from Coffee Cottage in Metairie. When we moved away, we tried the king cakes that various bakeries ship out of state but nothing compared. We order from John every year and refer any of our friends and family that want a "real" or unique king cake to Caluda's. We do miss the crawfish ones though.....sigh.....
Kathy Bensel
Caluda ‘a king cakes are amazing! I had this one sent to my daughter who is away at school. This is the first Mardi Gras she missed, and it arrived on time on Mardi Gras morning. She said it was very fresh and just what she needed! Will definitely order from them again!
April Layher
I ordered over the internet to have a king cake delivered to my son in another state. The shipping choices listed were confusing and somehow the free shipping tacked $30 on to the price when I checked out. However when I called to see about it the staff were wonderful and went to great lengths to find out what happened and they called me back at least twice to make sure we had it straightened out. My son was very happy with his King Cake too.
Valerie Zelinka
One reason why I am giving only 4 stars instead of 5: our King Cake was supposed to arrive on Mar 4th but it arrived on Mar 5th. When I called to let them know that our cake hadn't arrived, he advised me to "call back tomorrow if I don't get it." The boss was happy as he is from New Orleans and King Cake is very important to him. Mardi Gras was on Mar 5th this year so we got it on Fat Tuesday. It was very fresh and had a light cinnamon smell to it. Last year, we ordered one from another company and it was very dry. I suggest ordering your cake 2 weeks before you want it to arrive; you can choose your date this way, which is another great feature. You can only order your cake on-line ; they do not take orders over the phone. Except for the late arrival, I was very happy with the service and quality of the cake.
Lynne Roberts
We have sent our friends and family king cakes from Caluda the last several years. The reviews are always great. When we did have one issue (Fedex smashed the box), I spoke with Diane, another king cake was sent and they handled the claim with Fedex.
Shannon Morris
Caluda's was extremely helpful and accommodating with my online order! So many other places would not let me place an order the week of Mardi Gras. I needed the cake delivered to California a week after Mardi Gras and Caluda's made it happen. They were very kind and professional and our LA son-in-law loved receiving his birthday King Cake! Thank you Caluda's!
Betty Gartman
Just had my first Caluda king cake will not be my last. Cher it’s the best I have had in a long time. They don’t know how to cook it in North Louisiana. ❤️❤️❤️❤️😀😀😀😀🥰 …
Curt Eberhart
Delicious King Cakes! I had one shipped all the way to Oregon this year and it made it in great condition and tasted really fresh. I highly recommend Caluda's for your King Cake needs
Allison Batty
By far the best Kings Cake I have ever had. ( I am referring to cream cheese Kings Cake ). I ordered this from New York and when it arrived it was so fresh I could have sworn it came out of the oven just hours earlier. Customer Service was tops also.
Allison- Stephentown ,NY
Greg McEntyre
Best King Cake in town! Showed up after closing time unfortunately this round, but was directed to a nearby store that was about to get a fresh delivery. Great people, great cakes.
Mike Smoller
Caludas King cakes are the best. They ship quickly and their products always arrive in great shape. Everything Caludas makes is top quality, try the Crawfish Streudel, it is amazing as well.
Brett Francois
Best King Cake Period!!! Live in California from New Orleans, and when I need my King Cake fix Caluda's is the place. Easy ordering, comes fresh and quick.
Misty Dawson
We ordered the cream cheese king cake, it arrived on time and it was so DELICIOUS, I've never had one before but my fiance is from Mississippi so he has been craving them and I'm so glad I tried it! Seriously the greatest
Kim Breaux
We have been buying king cakes from Caluda's for years as they are always so consistently fresh and delicious and this last one was no exception. No reason to go anywhere else!!
J P
Wife bought the large cream cheese filled king cake. We cut several pieces and instead of continuously filled with cream cheese we only found dots of filling. Disappointed.
Ingrid Cheek
Ever since I tried the maple bacon king cake my life has been forever changed! Caluda's is also my favorite booth to visit during Jazz Fest. My daughter loved the crawfish strudel so much she ate 2!
Tina Henry
I now reside in Colorado and I visited New Orleans recently and my “Chalmation” husband was unable to go. So I decided to bring him back a variety of king cakes to Colorado to taste test. He is from Chalmette and asked me to bring him back a Randazzos “his favorite”. We were trying to figure out how in the world they were number #1. That was the worst we have ever had… dry, bland, slimy, and expensive.
Well I can honestly say he was extremely disappointed, but for the first Caluda king cake he has ever eaten. He said it is now his favorite! I am from New Orleans and I have my favorites, but I think Caludas can give them a run for their money. The freshness lasted for 5 days. We finished last piece on the 5th day :-). The cake has an awesome very slight lemony flavor with a fantastic vanilla flavored icing. Caludas you should have 5 stars! At least I will give them to you…⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Seeing the daily specialty king cake is why I go early.

We bought the Mardi Gras kit. It included some beads, coins, and a cup. This was very cool. The cake itself was delicious. I couldn't get enough and it was gone pretty quickly even though it was a big cake. I highly recommend Caluda's!

MUST GET THE STRAWBERRY CREAM CHEESE CAKE. It. Slaps. I got one here and one from Winn Dixie and let me tell you; you really get what you pay for. The only regret I have is not buying more at Caluda’s! Definitely will be ordering and having it shipped to me, from now on.

I’m a a traditional King Cake lover. A dear friend introduced me to Caluda’s King Cakes years ago, and it’s the only King Cake I want. They have never disappointed.

The King Cake always arrives fresh and in one piece. I frost it myself and my family loves it. The cinnamon is the best according to my crew.
rebecca alvarez
Best king cake in the area! Tried em all, and this one is my go-to. I moved to Texas this year, and I've shipped it in all season. Best orices for shipped king cakes, too!
Denise Preuss
Caludas always has cakes for sale. They are never “sold out”. They are boxed beautifully. And their traditional with the white icing is the BEST. 49$ for the cake and delivery. Perfect!!

A co-worker and I decided to have a King Cake sent to us in New York City, since I was from Louisiana.

Patricia Corso
I send a king cake to my son in California every year for his birthday and he said that Caluda's King Cake was by far the best. Requested that I send Caluda's king cake from now on!!

I'm in the hospital recovering from knee replacement surgery done at noon today. My DIL showed up with a Caluda's king cake this evening. It's one of the best I have ever eaten and was one of the highlights of my day!💗 …
Arlene Mercadel
I had the opportunity to taste the bananas foster, the bacon praline, and the praline cream cheese. All of them were the bomb!!! This was the best I have ever had! They were fresh, moist, and tasty! I can hardly wait to get my own....I might share..hmmnn??
Craig
Purchased the Saints King cake for a playoff game
. Arrived on time just as asked and it was great. I will only purchase king cakes from Caluda's. Thank you very much!
Rene Petz
Wow! I was born and raised in Louisiana. Being use to excellent food has become a minimum standard. Claudia's has raised the bar beyond the stratosphere. Each offering is better than the last. I suggest starting at the top of his menu and work your way down, but any choice is a good one!
Rodney Normand
GREAT EXPERIENCE EVERY YEAR, Our company sends customers over 100 Christmas King Cakes and they deliver the next day all around the USA PERFECT!!!!! GREAT TASTE!!! Thanks Dianne

Fantastic! We ordered a pecan praline with cream cheese. Delicious! The strawberry is also incredible.

I was asked by several people to bring home a king cake for Mardi Gras. I happened to be near this bakery, and I am glad I stopped by. I was able to purchase 1 of 3 last cream cheese cakes left. I asked for the most popular and was recommended this one. They weren't kidding. All parties have raved about it. Even my seat mates on the flight all said I had selected a good one. Excellent choice and excellent recommendation. If you're in this area, be sure to stop by this place.
Caitlin Shine
The king cake was amazing! My first king cake ended up getting lost by Fed Ex, and when I called the bakery, they sent me another one over night! I will definitely order from them again and refer others to do the same.
