It’s a special day in our pastry kitchens around the globe as we launch our signature Ritz-Carlton cake. 

The mission of Corporate Chef Rainer Zinngrebe was to take a few classical, yet commonly found ingredients to create a taste distinctly Ritz-Carlton. A presentation that would make a beautiful, thoughtful gift and a cake that carries the history of The Ritz-Carlton. In celebration of our heritage, the cake has a rich, dark chocolate flavor with bursts of orange throughout. A delicious balance of sweet chocolate and sharp citrus. And now, a few words from Rainer and Chef Fred at The Ritz-Carlton, Tysons Corner: http://bit.ly/1gP82T1 

As of today, guests all over the world can taste, and even take home our beautifully presented masterpiece, and we encourage you to share early sightings with our hashtag: #RCMemories. We’ll feature a selection of your photos on Instagram.
