وThis classic French Opera Cake is made with layers of almond sponge, potent coffee syrup, French buttercream, and chocolate ganache. It’s worthy of any special occasion.
This coffee lover’s dream-come-true is a six layer affair, stacked with three layers of almond sponge, soaked with espresso syrup and alternating layers of French buttercream and chocolate coffee ganache.
It has been described as ‘elaborate’ which is true. Its preparation calls for your time, patience, and a candy thermometer, but the end result is so worth the effort. It is one of my favorite cakes of all time, and it’s certainly one to try if you’re looking to hone your skills in patisserie.
