What are some "famous" Louisiana treats?  I am hosting a golf outing and would like to do a hole with some goodies from LA, I know beignets and there is some cookie type thing everyone raves about (name?) what else can I try to find?  Also, any recommendations on places to get them (local)? 4951

Zachary's Cajun cafe has great boudin balls. They're locally owned so they might be willing to work on the price for free advertising. - this from a loyal customer. Never hurts to ask. 4951

Pralines. If I had to guess, On The Park might have some.
Or that meat market on 1960, Veron's? If I'm not mistaken, they are Louisiana people.
 
Swamp Fire (I've seen this at Walmart grocery store. Its seafood boil seaaoning, in a bag)
 
Cafe Du Monde beignet mix, most grocery stores but also fairly sure this is at the Walmart Grocery Store on Northpark.
 
Agree with Zapps as well

@allymansfieldEveryone on here gave really AMAZE-BALLS ideas, dude..  I would add in some festive Mardi Gras beads, that can be found/purchased at Party City (in Atascocita)....  And if prizes are to be rewarded, or there's an Auction / Raffle of any sort, (depending on the allotted funds) consider both a Texans and a Saints Football Jersey, Texans VS Saints Football Game Tickets (Sunday, Nov. 29th in Houston), Yeti Koozies, Yeti Thermos, and a Yeti Cooler as giveaways.....      ....And just to add in on the grub recommendations, how about a traditional Kings Cake, and having a crawfish and scrimp (shrimp) boil, with Taters, Shrooms and Corn....  Or Jambalaya, Red Beans and Rice, or a Fish, Shrimp, and Crawfish Tails Fry with French Fries and Hushpuppies....All served with a Salad Bar and Fresh French Baguette Bread (check with Panera Bread and HEB for the bread, dude) or even perhaps Muffalata Sandwiches (check with Schlotsky's) served with Kettle Chips....

Pecan Pralines DROOL... another delicious thing that I can't have!  Although I might break off a little piece just for the taste! 4951

Awesome guys, thank you!  Today my husband had a board meeting and proposed the new ideas (pretty much I revamped the entire golf outing for this year) to the board.  We were a little nervous because I put out some big sponsorship and really different ideas.  He came home, said they were in awe of all I have done and got 3 of the 6 companies/board members to buy big ticket (new) sponsorship's already!  I just sent the invites out on Tuesday and already we have sponsors!  One bought the drinks cart, another a "premium" hole sponsorship (where I plan to offer food or drinks like I have been asking ideas for), and the other company bought (my favorite) the champagne greeting (mimosas offered to each guest as they come to sign in!).  They LOVED that idea and the premium hole ideas.  So excited!!!! 4951
