Like many other holidays and festivals observed globally today, Mardi Gras has its roots in Christianity. The French term Mardi Gras translates to Fat Tuesday, and refers specifically to the last day before Lent. Lent is a period prior to Easter when Christians traditionally fasted. Giving up a particular food or vice, such as smoking or eating sweets, is more typical today. 2. The length of Mardi Gras celebrations varies depending on where the celebrations are held. While some parties last a day or two, others run for 46 exciting days. Traditionally the observance began on Epiphany, also known as Twelfth Night, and ended just before Lent. In the Christian tradition, Epiphany is the twelfth day after Christmas when the kings arrived at Jesus' birthplace. Fat Tuesday is also called Pancake Tuesday or Shrove Tuesday. The following day, known by Christians as Ash Wednesday, is the first day of Lent. 3. The term Lent actually translates from Old English to mean the season of spring. Having a festival just before spring is typical of many religions and cultures. If you've ever been to a Mardi Gras celebration, it may surprise you that such a party could have a religious background. Festivals and carnivals that take place before springtime are filled with extravagance and mystery. In fact it is believed that these circus-type festivals existed before Christians adopted them, and that they were toned down to fit the faith. Over time, the festivals grew wilder again and eventually the religious aspect lost its significance. 4. One common element of carnival celebrations worldwide is the parade. These massive spectacles have been popular in the United States since the 1700s when French explorers brought their traditions with them from Paris. To this day, the Mardi Gras parades in America are organized by private clubs called Krewes. These secret societies hide behind masks as they parade down the streets of cities including New Orleans, Louisiana and Mobile, Alabama. The more exclusive Krewes are made up of relatives from previous generations and often have high membership fees. The fees are used to pay for the decorative floats. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Copyright 2010.

In New Orleans there are three special colors associated with Mardi Gras and each color has a symbolic meaning. Green symbolizes faith, purple symbolizes justice, and gold symbolizes power. Costumes, decorations, and beaded necklaces of these three colors are prevalent throughout Mardi Gras. Besides the beads, other special souvenirs such as coins and hand-decorated coconuts are thrown out to the parade watchers from the partiers on the floats. Items that are tossed into the crowds are called "throws". 6. In Rio de Janeiro and other parts of Brazil, this Lenten celebration is known as Carnival. Often dubbed "The greatest party on Earth," Carnival in Rio features a two-day samba school parade. Thousands of travelers from around the world visit Rio for this spectacle, including celebrities who celebrate from VIP balconies along the parade route. The singers and dancers in the parade wear feathers as a symbol of Brazil's ability to overcome troubled times. Judges are placed at various points along the route to determine which school deserves the highest marks. 7. Festivals like Mardi Gras are not necessarily tied to spring. Canadians celebrate Carnival at an annual winter festival in Quebec City that coincides with Mardi Gras. Winter Carnival in Quebec is the largest of its kind in the world with close to one million attendees each year. Rather than feathers and beads and coconuts, it features an ice castle and a winter amusement park for the whole family. Activities include sleigh racing, ice sculpting, and dog sledding. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Copyright 2010.

Each of the entrepreneurs began working with a “master baker” as little boys but later followed different paths to develop a successful fruitcake business. A brief history of the fruitcake is offered as evidence that the product has been around for hundreds of years and will likely not go away anytime soon in spite of the ridicule and humor that has surrounded fruitcakes during the past twenty-five years.

We spoke to American cake decorating sensation, Ron Ben-Israel (right), who revealed how he and his team made the star wedding cake. How did it come about that you made the wedding cake for Sex and the City 2? We were contacted by the team of set designers for the movie who had seen our work in the media. We’ve also cooperated in the past with Swarovski Crystal to showcase their newest products on cakes. How did you come up with the design? We were given the parameters by the set designers: an elegant, white, over-the-top wedding setting. Interestingly, the design didn’t call for the use of sugar flowers, for which we are well known; the key words were “frozen water” and “sparkle”. There was to be no colour in the cake, just white, transparency, and reflection of light. We started looking at chandeliers for inspiration, but most of the shapes had too much flare on the bottom to become elegant cakes.

No portion of this article may be republished without written permission from the authors. www.NewEnglandRecipes.org History and Origins of Birthday Cakes & Candles The tradition of celebrating a person’s birthday with a birthday cake and lit candles originated in 18 th century Germany. In 1746, Count Ludwig von Zinzendorf of Marienborn Germany celebrated his birthday. Andrew Frey, one of the guests, gave a detailed account of the party: “… the Houses to be illuminated on that day, which was accordingly done. They fetch Waggons full of Boughs, and with them covered the whole inside of the Count’s Hall, which is a hundred feet long, and forty wide … that it looked like an Arbour, and also hung up three brass Chandeliers, each of seven candles. In it also are four Pillars which were hung full of Lights spirally disposed. Wooden Letters above two Feet long were made to form the Name of LUDWIG VON ZINZENDORF, and these being gilded with Gold, were fixed to the Wall amidst a Blaze of Lights. The seats were covered with fine Linen set of with very sightly Ribbons. A Table also was made, representing the initial Letters of the Name of the Person who was the Subject of the Festival; there was a Cake as large as any Oven could be found to bake it, and Holes made in the Cake according to the Years of the Person’s Age, every one having a Candle stuck into it, and one in the Middle; the Outside of the Court was adorned with Festoons and foliage …” [Frey, 1753: 15] In Germany, children’s as well adults’ birthdays were also celebrated with birthday cakes.
