My try on Christmas log cake

Hanhan has been asking for cake lately. It could be the after effect of telling her that I'm going for baking lesson so that I could bake cake for her :P Anyway I was quite tempted to try on the Christmas log cake after the baking lesson. And last Friday I actually got some cute little Christmas log cake decor when I went to Toa Payoh Pooh Huat (it's near to Hanhan's school) to get some ingredients for the cookies which I wanted to bake for some time. They ended up in my shopping basket because I can't resist their cuteness. At then I'm still wasn't sure whether I'm going to bake Christmas log cake.

Since I have almost all the ingredient needed, I got the rest from NTUC and this is what I worked on in the evening.

I baked it from scrap, although I only show the assembling part. I made a few mistake along the way. But as a 1st try, I'm quite pleased with the result. I pinched a bit of the sponge roll and the texture seems quite good too :) Maybe from this year on way there will be one log cake this time every year.
