Opera meets Chocolate

Did you know?

February is National “Bake for Family Fun Month”! 

In honor of this we’re celebrating the one act opera “Bon Appetit” by composer Lee Hoiby. The text of the opera is drawn directly from one of PBS’s The French Chef cooking shows in which the famous Julia Child creates Le Gateau au Chocolate l’Eminence Brune (a chocolate cake).

  • Opera on Video has a selection of productions of this humorous one-woman opera for you to enjoy – Click here
  • If you would like to try making the recipe yourself – Click here
  • It’s too much work for me, so I am sharing my go to Chocolate Craving Cake from the website iambaker.net Click here

Introducing my new limited edition Chocolate Gateau Collection with chocolate-colored glass beads and pearls. Charms evoke Julia’s famous competition between a whisk and an electric mixer! Click to see more!
