Opera cream torte is a Cincinnati confection: chocolate cake layered with vanilla opera cream filling and enrobed in chocolate glaze, the BonBonerie signature for over 30 years.

Opera cream is a Cincinnati regional candy: a soft vanilla cream confection coated in chocolate, dating to the early 1900s when Cincinnati's many Italian and German chocolatiers produced small cream candies. BonBonerie's owners Mary Pat Pace and Sharon Butler scaled the candy into a cake: a chocolate cake layered with vanilla opera cream filling and enrobed in dark chocolate, finished with shavings.
