From NOLA Defender (by Kyle Gilmore, published 1/23/2011):
Entering Week 3 of our King Cake Quest, we needed a bit of fresh air. So we turned up the blues and drove across state lines to Paul’s Pastry, which has been making delicious King Cakes in Picayune, Miss., since the early 1970’s. Paul’s is a family owned operation. Currently, Sherri Paul Thigpen is carrying on the family tradition of producing delicious stuffed King Cakes. Paul Thigpen considers it an honor to be a part of the King Cake baking family. “We think there is enough of a market for all of us,” she said. “We just want everyone to do well and most importantly make great King Cakes.” [ read more… ]
This was a cake competition we were in this weekend in Hattiesburg at the Thad Cochran Center on the USM Campus. We participated in the By Invitation Only Special Events “A Bridal Affair,” Fall Bridal Expo and “A Piece of Cake” Cake Competition held Sunday, Oct 24 featuring The Food Networks Ace of Cakes star Duff Goldman and America’s 1st Master Chef, Whitney Miller.
We all worked very hard planning & implementing this project. We have a great team of talented people who worked on this project. We are Blessed.
Garrett Hartley, the Saints place kicker, came to sign autographs at We Dat Lockerroom here in our shopping center Saturday, Sept.4. He came into the bakery before he left town and we gave him a king cake–he’d never had one before. Hope he likes it!
We Dat Lockerroom has donated $1,000.00 from the event to “Pennies for Your Park II” — a non-profit organization to rebuild Friendship Parks playground area. Come see the new store in the Top of the Hill Shopping Center on I-59 North Picayune Exit 6 down from Paul’s Pastry Shop.
