What is a Bûche de Noël?
As the December holiday season arrives in France, pastry shop windows fill with Bûches de Noël (Yule logs) in many flavours. Shaped like miniature fireplace logs, the Bûche de Noël is a sponge cake base with a buttercream or ganache filling. These holiday cakes are rolled into a cylinder shape with a creamy interior and finished with a whimsical design. Talented pastry chefs add edible decorations (mushrooms, berries, branches and more) made with meringue or marzipan.

They also offer a 5 day/7-night culinary holiday package (Week in Uzès), including accommodations, with tours, tastings and, of course, cooking.
