Yule Tide Treasures....



Tonite, Miss Betty ala EatMyCupcake and I were lucky enough to take a baking class where we got to roll and decorate Yule Logs aka Buche Noel...and watch how to easily make a red velvet roll cake and an ice cream cake.



The Yule Log portion thankfully took up 4/5 of the class, which is why we went in the first place. It was hands on and we made it REALLY hands on. As in finger-lickin-good hands-on!



Our logs were pretty darn cute if I do say so myself...and we had a fabulous time asking ridiculous questions of the instructor such as 'why do you use a mix' and 'what makes this cake moist' (answer...the POWDERED EGGS...yes you read that one right).



On a sappy note...I am so happy that Betty and I connected during the forlorn 'first and last' South Bay Cupcake Meetup so many months ago. It is a ton of fun to have a local baker pal who you also have a lot in common with, other than just baking. Plus our hubs actually like each other too. LUVSYA Betty and Papa Bear! HOHOHO.

Want to make your own Yule Log? Here is a link.
