What is opera cake? It’s called Gâteau opéra in French, and has layers of almond sponge cake, espresso buttercream and chocolate ganache, and then covered in a chocolate glaze. It’s rich, creamy, chocolatey, and packed with coffee and espresso flavor. I used to think the best opera cake I’ve ever had was in Paris, but after trying this recipe at home, I’ve changed my mind. This recipe has been tested many times and is easily the best homemade opera cake recipe that I’ve ever tried. It’s finished with a smooth chocolate glaze. Opera Cake is a classic French dessert combining layers of almond sponge cake soaked in coffee syrup, espresso-flavored buttercream, and decadent chocolate ganache.
