Mankind first learned about sweet rolls thanks to French confectioners. In principle, many desserts were invented in France. But it was the dessert in the form of a roll that made a great resonance and forced the rest of the world’s cooks to experiment with this type of cake. The
first rolls were considered a Christmas dessert
.
This was confirmed by the special name of the cake – “Christmas log”. However, even in countries where Christmas was not celebrated, began to prepare this dessert. It began to have the status of a simple and accessible cake for everyone. Let’s prepare a homemade sweet roll on our own.
