Apart from the usual savoury goodies of the Christmas season, log cakes can add a sweet and fun touch
Once you’re done with the ham, turkey, and the rest of the savoury goodies, you’re going to start hankering for something sweet. Here are a few log cakes you can share with your loved ones.
Antoinette
Antoinette has an array of Christmas goodies. The star of the show, the Eden Log Cake, is made out of 64 per cent dark chocolate mousse, caramel, flourless chocolate cake and almond biscuits.
Available at Antoinette from Nov 11 to Dec 24 at Palais Renaissance, #B1-08.
Goodwood Park
If you like your cakes creamy and rich, the Blonde Chocolate Florentine Log Cake from Goodwood Park Hotel is a treat. This layered cake comprises a crisp almond Florentine base, hazelnut sponge cake and trinity of hazelnut mousse, a blonde Dulcey 32 per cent chocolate mousse with a touch of cream and caramelised milk with a dark cherry centre.
Available for order from Dec 1 to 26.
Bakerzin
This year, Bakerzin features three unique log cakes: the Hazelnut Dacquoise Log Cake, The Traditional Chocolate Log Cake and, our favourite, the highly delightful Strawberry Mousse Log Cake. Each layer has a soft genoise sponge, mascarpone cheese mousse and strawberry jelly, encased in a mirror glaze. We like how it is topped with macarons.
Available for order at all Bakerzin outlets until Dec 25.
The Icing Room
The Icing Room shows log cakes can be playful, with its reindeer cakes. Looking like a slightly startled reindeer with a red-nose, you can choose Chocolate Ruldoph or Reindeer Blush. The latter is made of chocolate chiffon, hazelnut mousse and praline feuilletine covered in strawberry-flavoured chocolate glaze and with white chocolate ears and a milk chocolate nose.
Available from Nov 14 to Dec 31 at The Icing Room outlets.
York Hotel
If you like things classic and simple, the Chocolate Log Cake from York Hotel would be ideal. The decadent and rich cream will satisfy chocolate fiends. They also have English Fruit Cakes and Christmas Cookies.
Available at York Hotel from Dec 1 to 31.
