Today was the last bake-off of 2008. A momentous occasion with a suitably festive theme: the Yule log or, for those in the know, Bûche de Noël. There were 4 logs on the table. Enough for a large fire.

There were some interesting takes on the recipe. Ryan threw in a bit of Malibu to give it an under age drinking twist. Luke’s bark-like icing was impressive, complete with authentic wood knot. Louise’s very realistic decaying woodland log, with sprouting foliage, was light and fluffy in texture. Sophie’s heart attack log won the day, and was so full of chocolate (again) that it made everyone feel mildly sick.

 Another triumph for Baking Club. Bring on the culinary delights of 2009.
