Yule log

I did not made a yule log last year because I was quite busy. This year I made it task to make one. I was also very keen on making one this year to celebrate Christmas. I made this one in 2013 with chocolate cream as filling and couverture. This year I went for chocolate cream filling and covered the roll in chocolate ganache. I also topped it with some flaked chocolate sprinkles, and marzipan mushrooms and to finish off, dusted with some icing sugar. I was pretty excited at how the buche looked.

Happy Merry Christmas !

I wish all of you a very Merry happy Christmas :)
Today I made my first yule log ever and it turned out great. Hope it tastes great too (can't wait to try it tomorrow). I'll give you a sneak peek of it :

Tomorrow's going to be a big and busy day in the kitchen (not only for cooking-  yes that's right, but also for eating- yes we eat in the kitchen hmm who said dining room lol).
I'm watching Christmas carols on TV right now (such a delight - bring on Christmas Spirit).
Jingle bell jingle bell jingle all the way... la la la la la ...right I should probably get back, so I will pen off now.
Have a great Christmas and don't eat moderately ;)
