A rich chocolate sponge cake with smooth whipped cream filling tastes better than it looks!!
Its crazy for me to imagine a cake filled with sweet filling .. all rolled , covered with chocolate frosting and decorated with flowers and leaves looking just like a log straight out of a fairy-tale.
If you are craving for chocolate then this will definitely satisfy you. It can be decorated with fresh fruits and more.
The fluffy chocolate sponge .. swirled around with a spiral of cream and covered with decadent dark chocolate ganache is just Heavenly !!!
This Traditional cake is decorated to resemble a log, the soft airy sponge is the best part of this dessert. They are made around the winter season and will be the centerpiece at your table to win all hearts !!
The Yule log cake is a symbol of the New year and Good luck. It is originally from France. Its the perfect sweet dessert for your holiday.
I made it look like a Yule log has a tree bark by dragging a fork lengthwise through the frosting, Drag wavy lines to make it look more realistic. You can take it over the top by dusting the entire log with a light coating of sugar !!!
