King's Cake with versions for Mardi Gras or Three King's Day-that are fit for a king! Season two, episode one.

<p>A delicious sweet yeasted dough, topped to make a dessert tray the life of the party-complete with a baby inside. &nbsp;&nbsp;While the base of the King's Cake is the same, Sheila explores the different decorating techniques for each holiday. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;There are also some tips included in our YouTube channel. &nbsp;&nbsp;Please feel free to share this episode with other purple/green/gold party revelers. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>We use a pastry style sweet dough, which is rich and dense. Not really cake like more bread like in texture.</p> <p>½ cup of honey</p> <p>3 cups of white flour bread flour</p> <p>1 cup of whole wheat flour bread flour</p> <p>1Tablespoon of salt</p> <p>1 Tablespoon of vanilla</p> <p>2 Eggs</p> <p>¼ cup of butter softened</p> <p>2 packages of yeast or 1 ¾ Tablespoon of dried yeast.</p> <p>1 ½ cups of milk warmed</p> <p>Make the dough into a long rope like shape much like you would for a baguette. Flatten out the roll, and put brown sugar and a cinnamon mixture in the middle.</p> <p>1 cup of brown sugar</p> <p>1 Tablespoon of cinnamon</p> <p>For the Three King’s Day, we will egg wash and then lightly sprinkle additional cinnamon and sugar on the rounded loaf. &nbsp;For the Three King’s loaf, we decorate with dried fruit and then bake the loaf. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We don’t frost the loaves either after coming out of the oven. For King Cakes, we frost than add the colored sugars of yellow, purple and green. The colors signify yellow/gold for power, green for justice and purple for faith. &nbsp;Bake for approximately 30-35 minutes until the bread reaches 180 degrees.</p> <p>For King's Cake, paint on a layer of powdered sugar/vanilla and water.</p> <p>1 cup of powdered sugar, 1 Tablespoon of vanilla</p> <p>Add a tablespoon of water at a time to get a runny pancake batter consistency.</p> <p>Sprinkle each segment liberally with yellow, green and then purple sugars. You alternate each color. &nbsp;</p> <p>For more information about House of Bread, please visit <a href="http://www.houseofbread.c
