Buche de Noel is the French for Yule Log. These days it is a cake made in the form of a Swiss roll or Roulade decorated to look a wooden log.The Yule Log is a tradition, dating from pre-Christian times, to celebrate the winter solstice with the building of a bonfire.As Christmas came to replace the Winter Solstice celebrations, people carried on the tradition for a 'yule' log by cutting down a tree each year and then placing it in the fireplace so the heat from the log could be used to prepare the Christmas Eve midnight supper. The ashes from this 'yule' log were believed to hold magical and medicinal powers that would ward off the evil spirits in the coming year. Another tradition was started when new homes were built without fireplaces so they could not burn a real 'yule' log. The story goes that an innovative French pastry chef (in the late 1800s) came up with the idea of replacing the real 'yule' log with a cake that was log shaped.
During the Christmas season, it is traditional to gather around the fireplace and enjoy a delicious yule log cake with loved ones.
The Yule log is an ancient pagan tradition that is still practised by many pagans in today's society. In the Pagan wheel of the year, the Sun God dies at Samhain and is reborn again at Yule, the Midwinter Solstice. Pagans burn a 'Yule log' on the eve of Yule to mark the rebirth of the sun after a long winter. A Yule log is traditionally dusted with flour, wassailed with cider & decorated with greenery and fruit; traditionally oranges and apples. Symbols are also commonly carved into the log, usually either sun symbols or symbols of regrets and bad mistakes you have made in the past. It is said that this negativity is burned along with the long so that you can start your new year with a clean slate. A Yule log must be either found or given as a gift, never bought. It is said that the Yuletide festivities last only as long at the Yule log burns and when it dies down, a piece of the burnt log is saved for next year and at the next Yule it is placed on top of the new Yule log to help kindle it.
The traditional yule log cake that we know of today originated in France. You can find a recipe for yule log cake on websites such as Allrecipes and Taste of Home.
