The cult-favorite apple and goat cheese king cake isn't available for a second year in a row.
The big picture: NOCCA previously partnered with the former owners of Cake Cafe to make the nontraditional king cake. They took a break last year.
Fans hoped they would return, but a NOCCA spokesperson tells us the cake isn't on the menu again.
Yes, but: NOCCA is experimenting with other varieties — satsuma and almond, salted caramel apple, key lime blueberry and gluten-free cinnamon.
