I was telling my kids how I always wanted a Yule Log cake when I was a kid and that my parents would never buy one. My 5 year old decided we HAD to get one this year for me to finally try. Anywhere in NoVA we can find a really good one? The kids are obsessed with the one on the Baskin Robbins ad, but I'd love one from a bakery. I definitely want to make one in future years, but I have two other younger kids and my DH is traveling a lot between now and Christmas, so it's not a project I want to undertake until the kids are a little older. Thanks!

I love the sound of these bakeries! I bet they make a good Black Forest cake.
Sorry. I am thinking about cake too much. |
| Can't go wrong with Heidelberg!!! |
| Yule Log cakes are very popular with Vietnamese, due to French colonization influence. You could check out Eden Center. They tend to be very light. |

Pastry Xpo - Mosaic center. I haven't actually tried their yule log, but I've seen one in the store and it was gorgeous, and everything else I've tried there was delicious.
