About BLUEBERRY FLAVORED KING CAKE, BLUEBERRY

Freshness Guaranteed Blueberry Flavored King Cake is a yeasted pastry sold under Walmart's Freshness Guaranteed in-store bakery brand. King cakes are a traditional Mardi Gras pastry of Creole origin, typically a ring-shaped yeasted dough filled with sweet filling and topped with colored icing or sugar. This product falls in the Cakes, Cupcakes, and Snack Cakes category.

The primary ingredients are sugar and bleached enriched wheat flour. Water and margarine made from palm oil, water, and salt provide the dough's fat and hydration. The blueberry filling contains water, sugar, blueberries, corn syrup, modified food starch, sodium propionate and potassium sorbate as preservatives, and xanthan gum and locust bean gum for texture stabilization. Yeast is present confirming the leavened bread-like structure. The formula includes a range of minor ingredients for emulsification, texture, and shelf stability: soy flour, sodium stearoyl lactylate, calcium sulfate, mono and diglycerides, and enzymes. Agar-agar and carob bean gum contribute to glaze or coating texture. Natural and artificial flavors are listed. Allergens include wheat, dairy (from whey and nonfat milk), eggs, and soy.
