FLAVOR PROFILE

• Chocolate génoise cake, coffee buttercream, chocolate cream cheese frosting

WHY WE LOVE IT

• The bûche de Noël is a French holiday favorite, inspired by the giant yule logs that were traditionally burned on Christmas Eve. Bakers at the small, family-owned We Take the Cake bakery in Florida handcrafted this one with their best-selling chocolate génoise cake, rolled with rich coffee buttercream and finished with chocolate cream cheese frosting "bark." Berry-laden fondant holly leaves and blooms add a festive flourish.
