I went for a special Christmas baking workshop earlier on. We made Christmas Tiramisu Wonderland Cake and a Christmas Log Cake. Finally, I got to find out how a log cake is being made, although of course mine does not really look like a log cake, as can be seen from the picture. :-p
At least the Tiramisu cake turned out looking like one, but since it is in the fridge as at the time of this entry, I have no idea how it tastes like. I hope it tastes good though!
The Tiramisu cake was made using the original recipe of rum, tiramisu fingers and freezing of the batter, instead of baking. Once the cake has hardened, remove it from the freezer then sprinkle cocoa powder on top of it. Splatter with chocolate bits at the side. No wonder Tramisu cakes all taste of bitter chocolate, because of the cocoa powder!

Christmas Tiramisu Wonderland CakeThe next cake we made was the Christmas Log Cake. The log cake was originally made using a square sponge cake. The batter consists of melted chocolate and cream cheese. Once the sponge cake has been baked, splatter the batter on half of the cake, then roll it into a Swiss roll.
Cut off a bit of the cake at the end, then attach the bit to the middle to make it look like a log. Splatter with icing all over to attach the two parts together, then draw lines using a fork. Decorate with Christmas decorative bits and it is ready to be served.
