Christmas Log Cake Compilation

Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel

Marriott - Pandan _ Mixed Berries Chiffon Log Cake, Brandy White Chocolate Chestnut Log Cake, Peanut Butter Speculoos Praline Log Cake

The Peanut Butter Speculoos Praline Log Cake (1kg, $68nett) boasts just the right proportions of peanut butter-infused frosting, moreish speculoos crumble, crunchy feuilletine and luscious chocolate sponge. This will probably please those who always complain that log-cakes are too sweet. Did you know that the savoury-sweet speculoos is a caramelised shortcrust biscuit traditionally enjoyed at Christmastime in parts of Europe such as Belgium and the Netherlands? If you’re not flying to Europe this Christmas, then maybe this Log Cake will help you feel better.

Gokoku Japanese Bakery Strawberry Log Cake

Gokoku’s logcakes may be quite common flavours : they offer Uji Matcha, Strawberry or Decadent Chocolate log cakes. However these are the cheapest log cakes I have come across, at $32.90 each. Despite the pricing, they still look festive and taste good. I tried the Strawberry flavoured cake and I must say I am impressed with the light and airy sponge. Had two pieces in one sitting!

Fullerton Hotel

The Ondeh Ondeh Lamington Yule Logs showcases the well-loved trinity of flavours — Gula Melaka, pandan and coconut —with Gula Melaka mousse and coconut crí¨me with shredded coconut layered between pandan chiffon sponge cake. There is also the Strawberry Lychee Bandung Yule Log, an elegant twist on another local favourite, the Bandung drink. Here, raspberry chiffon sponge cake is paired with delicate lychee mousse and strawberry jelly gently infused with rose essence. I haven’t managed to try this, but as a Bandung drink lover, this sounds pretty enticing!
