TO ORDER FOR PICKUP
Ordering for pickup is easy:
Step #1: Pick the flavor of king cake that you want.
Step #2: Pick the date that you want to pick up your cake and coffee combo.
Step #3: On the date you've chosen, pick up your cake and coffee at Press Street Station (at the corner of Royal and Homer Plessy Way) from 9am-12pm.
