As we warily await the beginning of Lent, bakeries are embracing one of the carnival season’s greatest gifts: king cake. This traditional Mardi Gras treat consists of a raised dough ring topped with a sweet glaze colored with gold, green, and purple sugar, giving it the regal appearance that its name suggests. If you’re overdue for a visit to the dentist, proceed with caution, as king cakes traditionally come with a plastic baby Jesus hidden inside. (Finding the baby, however, earns you a full year of luck and a commitment to buying next year’s cake for your friends and family.) Here are some Seattle locations ready to help you feed your king cake cravings:

Where Ya At Matt, a New Orleans-inspired food truck, offers slices ($4) at the truck, as well as whole ($35) cakes that can be ordered in advance. Check out their website to see where Matt will be next.
