No Mardi Gras celebration is complete without a King Cake. This cake is actually a sweetened yeast bread, usually baked in a ring shape. The cake is frosted with gold, green, and purple icing representing in order, power, faith, and justice. Although this cake is colorful and tasty, the real fun hides within the cake. The maker of each King Cake hides a token in the cake. The tokens used are a dried red bean or a figurine of a baby, representing the Christ child. When the cake is cut and shared, the finder of the hidden treasure is said to enjoy good luck for the coming year. The lucky recipient may also be expected to bake the King Cake or throw the Mardi Gras party for the following year.
Simple lightly sweet yeast cake topped with brown sugar. 
The perfect ending to a romantic dinner or other special occasion and since this is cooked in a slow cooker - you can relax and enjoy your evening. This could work in a dutch oven a well. I haven't tried it yet so if you do let me know how it works.
