Classic Opera Cake ~ Vegan
www.gretchensveganbakery.com
Honestly I didn’t read the recipe lol. I got sucked in by the looks of it and imagined it was delicious.Have you ever tried it or are you planning to make it ?
Here is the recipe and it's not that difficult to make only very time consuming ! I wonder if using aquavaba would work instead of
using egg yolks/whites?
I have tasted it several times, and honestly imo, it looks better than it tastes!
I have also tasted a similar cake using walnuts instead of almonds. I also wasn't too keen on it. However everyone else would rave
about it.
Opera Cake - French Opera Cake Recipe - Chocolate Coffee Cake
Opera Cake is a rich French Cake, with layers of almond sponge cake soaked in coffee syrup, with coffee buttercream and chocolate ganache.www.homecookingadventure.com
Hmmmm...it does sound like I would like it. I will not be making it however and it’s unlikely I would find it anywhere around here.
I don’t like walnuts. If a recipe calls for them I either leave them out or sub pecans.
Of course they are. It would be the same here I’m sure. There are next to no bakeries that offer egg/dairy free goodies. I think there’s a popular donut shop about 30 minutes from me but I won’t go anywhere now because of covid.Patisserie shops sell them over here but they are made with eggs and butter.
