Opera Cake: A Timeless French-Inspired Indulgence

Experience the sophistication of Brunetti Classico’s Opera Cake, a luxurious layered dessert that perfectly balances coffee, chocolate, and almond flavours. This exquisite cake, inspired by the classic French patisserie, features delicate layers of thin almond sponge, infused with the rich depth of Cointreau liqueur, and alternated with silky coffee buttercream and indulgent dark chocolate ganache.

A Symphony of Flavours and Textures

The Opera Cake is crafted with precision, ensuring that every bite delivers a harmonious combination of light sponge, creamy textures, and bold flavours. The base of the cake is a thin almond sponge (Joconde sponge), which provides a soft, nutty foundation. The sponge is then delicately soaked in Cointreau liqueur, adding a subtle citrus warmth that enhances the overall depth of the cake.

Between each sponge layer lies a rich coffee buttercream, delivering an aromatic burst of espresso flavour, perfectly complementing the smooth, velvety dark chocolate ganache. The ganache provides a luscious intensity that contrasts beautifully with the lightness of the buttercream. To finish, the cake is coated with a glossy chocolate glaze, giving it an elegant, polished look that is as stunning as it is delicious.

A Cake for Coffee and Chocolate Lovers

This cake is the ultimate treat for coffee and chocolate enthusiasts. The deep espresso notes in the buttercream pair perfectly with the bittersweet dark chocolate ganache, creating a balanced flavour profile that is both bold and refined. The delicate layers make each bite melt in your mouth, leaving a rich and satisfying aftertaste.

The Opera Cake is an ideal choice for a special celebration, whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, or a sophisticated dinner party dessert. Its layered elegance makes it a standout centrepiece for any occasion, offering a taste of European luxury in every slice.

Perfect Pairings

For an authentic experience, enjoy the Opera Cake with a strong espresso or cappuccino, allowing the coffee notes to enhance the flavours of the cake. If you prefer a dessert wine, a sweet Muscat or Port pairs beautifully with the rich chocolate and coffee tones, elevating the indulgence to another level.
