A Mardi Gras Tradition to Inspire a Beautiful Entryway: 3 Top Easy Planters

Purple, green, and gold! If those colors sound familiar, you know about the New Orleans Mardi Gras tradition, the King Cake. The three colors associated with decorating these cakes have significance. Purple signifies justice, green signifies faith, and gold signifies power.

Made of braided cinnamon dough and filled with an assortment of desirable creams, jellies or fresh fruit our New Orleans Chefs work to make each piece an experience. This French confection was introduced to New Orleans around 1870, establishing itself as a staple in Mardi Gras festivities. Just as New Orleans is ever changing, the king cake reflects the evolution of these traditions.

From the start of the new year through Fat Tuesday king cakes are in every bakery in Louisiana. The options are growing and so is the fun! King cake parties are all the rage in our hometown, allowing everyone samples of all the different types.

Whilst attending a king cake party, the host will serve a slice of king cake.

The excitement takes place when everyone takes a peek and only one person finds their prize, the little plastic baby. The person who gets the baby is crowned the “King" for the day and is expected to buy and host the next king cake party.

Every good host knows that a great party starts with a welcoming entryway. We have selected our top low maintenance, self watering tall planters that will set a fun mood for your next gathering.

These planters are made of a high grade durable plastic with a life time guarantee. There is an internal reservoir that holds water for roots to absorb as the plants grow. Place two on either side of your door and fill with some fun seasonal flowers or evergreen plants. These tall planters are perfect for any entry that is difficult to water. The internal reservoir holds the water and keeps the space clean.
