    Method

    • step 1

      Get your swill roll and give it a generous cost of buttercream.
    • step 2

      Melt you chosen chocolate and pour it over your swill roll. Use a spatula to give a wooden effect. Leave it to set in the fridge.
    • step 3

      Once set, use a skewer to engrave wooden marks into the chocolate. Sprinkle some icing sugar over it.

      Add any other decorations of your choice, I prefer to add real holly leaves to give it a Christmassy feel!
