What's the point of the "Baby" in a king cake?

Question by : What’s the point of the “Baby” in a king cake?
I got a king cake today and saw a plastic baby inside the cake, thankfully my 2 year old son didn’t get that piece w/ the small baby… Kinda dangerous if you ask me.. But what does it mean?

It means you have to host the next family get together.

There several different thoughts regarding the baby in the King Cake. Traditionally, the baby buried in the King Cake represents the Baby Jesus. Also, it has been said that the person who finds the baby is the King or Queen for the day–they have to throw the next party and that person is said to have good luck. The baby is baked into each cake and adds a degree of excitement to the festivities to see who ends up finding the baby.
