Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you.....(drum roll)....The Opera Cake!!
Vancouver Opera celebrated their Golden Anniversary this past Friday and we were lucky enough to take part of the festivities as well as making them a cake. When I think of the Opera I cannot help but to think of voluptuous singers, glitz and glamour and of course grand fashion. Maybe I am just stuck in the past, way before my time, but I just love fashion from the Marie Antoinette era. I can watch costume movies all day and be in my happy place. Considering my strange love for unpractical and old fashion it was only natural for me to merge my two loves together, my other love being cake of course. I have also always wanted to make a cake that was all gold and it is a bit strange, come to think of it, that I have not done it before. Anyways, I can not tell you how much fun this cake was! The ladies (dolls) as they are referred to at the bakery took forever to make but it was so worth it!
Enjoy and I'll talk to you soon,
Nina
