History & Story
Created by the great Cyriaque Gavillon in 1955, the revolutionary Opéra Cake was avant-garde in its precise, geometric presentation of eight delicately thin layers. When opera lover Andrée Gavillon first tasted the cake, the wife of Cyriaque immediately compared it to the stage of the Opéra Garnier in Paris. Thus, the Opéra Cake was born. Raspberries are at their peak in summer, the perfect time to add a vibrant twist to the iconic Opéra Cake.
