| Hall of Mirrors Cake |
It's the festive season so desserts are on my brain. Take a look at these gorgeous cakes, macaroons and petit gateaus (not to mention everything from Confection Towers to marshmallows) being served up at the Cake Opera Co. (1136 Eglinton Avenue West).
Not only are the desserts and shop the height of Baroque
elegance, but just check out their website. Love.
Cake Opera will even custom make a sweet table for your event.
The shop was founded by Alexandria Pellegrino who, along with
a Fine Arts degree, also attended Le Cordon Bleu's Patisserie program.
Pellegrino's partner is pastry chef Jessica Smith who has been the head
pastry chef at highly regarded establishments like the Four Seasons' Truffles.
Pellegrino says that they "approach cake design first and
foremost as artists" with an intense attention to detail.
