<p>[QUOTE="antidiem, post: 4518445, member: 30"]Never seen such large figurines in New Orleans, but maybe Mardi Gras over in France or Brazil? Traditionally, a baby figurine is used in a King Cake. McKenzies did make King Cakes with teeny tiny ceramic queens at one point, but they were about an inch or less in height, like the babies. Since the 1970s, the babies have been made of plastic. I think these are just little doll souvenirs, Santons as AJ said.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
