Cracked it open tonight. 3 small slices and it’s nearly gone! It used to fill the whole board thing and now it’s more like a twig that a log.

"We've lost sight of what a normal chocolate log should look like ..." Xmas Grin

How much was it? I was looking for a small one in M&S yday but they were all massive. There's only two of us this year so although I love a yule log we wouldn't have eaten it all so I missed out this year Sad

It is a travesty. It’s half the bloody size. And not visible properly through the packaging to assess its size properly!

£4.99?

Surely it gives a weight on the box and tells you how many servings? We all know their serving sizes are ridiculous though so I tend to calculate 4 'supermarket servings' per person Grin

The ones we saw today at Sainsburies were £10 and looked huge!

Which one is it. I got a yule log delivered but it was the chocolate buttercream one and Im not keen

So today I got a fresh cream one which looks bigger. It says on it 'serves 10'

lol

Is it a mini roll?

We got ours from Tesco and it's absolutely enormous Grin

ScroogeMcDuckling · 24/12/2022 19:02

I feel quite proud that I made one this year, for about a fifth of the price, yes it’s huge and fat but I won’t be showing it off to guests, it’s a f……g mess, although an extremely tasty mess 🤣🤣

It’s always been big enough before. I get one every year.

Marginally bigger than a mini roll.
It was crap in both length and girth Grin

It was the buttercream one fudge one.

A crap hybrid of mini roll and twig.
