At one time the person who found the baby was to be the queen of Mardis Gras celebration, could select a court and had to host the next king cake party. King Cakes (and the parties) are only served/celebrated between 12th night (Jan 6...12 days after xmas) until Fat Tuesday (Mardis Gras). Some folks have a king cake party each week from 12th night until Mardis Gras.
