Happy Mardi Gras everyone! 🎉 Did you know that Happy Mardi Gras everyone! 🎉 Did you know that in France it's traditional to eat Bugnes on this day? These light and tasty donut-like bites are available in boulangeries all over the country. Mardi Gras, also known as Fat Tuesday or Shrove Tuesday, is the last day of feasting before the start of Lent. So let's indulge and enjoy some Bugnes before the fasting begins. Grab yours and join the celebration!
