WHEN OPERA MEETS CAKE: BAKING A TOSCAKAKA & SEEING TOSCA AT FOLKOPERAN

❓ What happens when Puccini’s Tosca inspires a vegan cake, a night at the opera, and a celebration with friends?

This vlog is a story of theatre, cake, friendship, and music—woven together on a glittering evening at FOLKOPERAN in Stockholm 🎭. My friend Christian, dresser on Tosca, invited me to a preview performance. And because Tosca is not only one of the most passionate operas in history but also lends its name to Sweden’s beloved Toscakaka (a sponge crowned with almond caramel glaze), I baked one as a thank-you gift 🍰✨.

Before the opera, Magnus and I met at BAR CENTRAL 🍷—a chic spot where glasses sparkle and secrets are shared. He had big news: he passed his motorcycle theory test 🏍️📚! We toasted to his success, to friendship, to opera. Outside the theatre, we met Martin 🌟, and then the night truly began.

Inside, the drama unfolded. Tosca tells the story of love, sacrifice, and betrayal: the fiery singer Tosca, her beloved Cavaradossi, and the menacing Scarpia. With arias that burn like fire and orchestral surges that shake the soul, this opera has captivated audiences since 1900. And at Folkoperan, every note was alive—raw, emotional, unforgettable 🎶🔥.

But this video is not just about opera—it’s about the ritual around it. The cake baked in gratitude. The hurried dash to Bar Central. The laughter with friends on a Södermalm street corner. It’s a reminder that theatre is not only what happens on stage—it’s what surrounds it.
