Buche de Noël

24

Dec

The "Buche de Noël" is a special dessert people in France enjoy on Christmas Eve, December 24th. It looks like a Yule log, which is a big piece of wood that some people used to burn in the fireplace during winter. The dessert is a sweet cake rolled up to look like this log. It is usually made of sponge cake and creamy frosting and decorated with things like tiny mushrooms or leaves made of sugar or chocolate. It's a yummy treat that brings families together around the table to celebrate Christmas.
