buche de noel

I made my Buche de Noel on Christmas Eve, not a good idea if you plan on serving the cake with Christmas Eve Dinner.  All I  have to say is there are many steps and many ingredients, but worth it!

I had to recruit my son to help make the fluffy frosting, and my husband made an extra trip to the store for eggs, but we did it.  There were only 3 of us for dinner, so on Christmas Day, I gave he other half of the Buche de Noel to my Aunt Lily and uncle Jorge.

  2. I do like the idea of splitting the buche in half and sharing it twice!
    Happy New Year to you.

  3. Yours looks beautiful! I made mine on Christmas Eve, too, but didn't serve it until Christmas Day. It must have been a whirlwind of activity at your house. Happy New Year!

  5. You have a signed tea towel from Dorie? Awesomeness! And I loved how you packaged the half Buche de Noel for transport -- looks very festive!
