Executive pastry chef Mathieu Lavallee kneads the orange molten sugar that will become a flame for a Raiders torch cake at Aria on Friday, Aug. 27, 2021, in Las Vegas. The flame will be part of a display at ARIA Patisserie beginning Sept. 13, which will include an Allegiant Stadium cake, a life-size chocolate Derek Carr and other Las Vegas-themed confections.
