Itâs no secret that Mardi Gras looks a little different this year. And while weâll miss running around on Bourbon Street with a Hurricane daiquiri in hand, itâs still possible to bring the tastiest parts of Mardi Gras into your own homeâincluding enjoying an over-the-top king cake from bakeries across the nation.
