This is the caramel cake. Personally my least favourite out of the three. Probably because I'm not a fan of just caramel alone. I couldn't really taste much caramel or chocolate, so it just felt like bland fluff to me.

Raspberry cake

This is the raspberry "Macaron aux Framboises" cake, fully translates to "raspberry cake of raspberry cake". The good balance between the smooth cream and not-too-sweet raspberry ties with the opéra cake.

This is the chocolate and coffee opéra cake. Rich in coffee and chocolate, this cake ties with the raspberry cake as the better two of the three.
