This was my first shot at making an Epiphany cake. I looked around for traditional recipes, but couldn't decide which traditional option to go with. The most common recipes I found were for Rosca de Reyes, Dreikönigskuchen, and Galette des Rois. All of them looked interesting, but were more labor intensive than I could swing with my two helpers. After a lot of looking I decided the type of cake wasn't really important, it was more the idea of the cake.
For awhile we have been wanting to make Blueberry Boy Bait, a simple coffee cake that won the1954 Pillsbury Grand Prize National Baking Contest. This seemed the perfect opportunity. It was delicious!
