Buche de Noel
literally means “strain ofChristmas” and owes its origin to pagan rites of the celebration of the solsticewinter: it was in fact customary to have a log of wood that burned slowly in the fireplace for at least 3 days, even better if it arrived at the beginning of the new year or at the Epiphany.
Just as the log warmed the family gathered for the Christmas vigil, thehole of Noël, even without a fireplace, will release a pleasant heat.

instructions
- Prepare a sponge cake for filled rolls and a butter cream following the instructions given in the corresponding recipes, then add the cocoa powder to the cream.
- Spread half the cream on the sponge cake, then roll it up.
- Place the rest of the cream in a pastry bag with a star nozzle (no. 4) and form many parallel cords on the surface of the log, lengthwise, so as to cover it completely.

- Complete the garnish with the almond paste leaves and meringue mushrooms, or decorate the dessert in another way, as your imagination suggests.
