The Artist's Touch
  
Jean François is known for the artistry of
his desserts. To decorate his Yule Log Cake, he pulled out all the
stops, adorning it with marbled chocolate oranments, spun sugar
ribbons and playful meringue mushrooms.
 
To begin assembling the final dessert, Jean François
carefully transferred the iced cake to a marble slab. Occupying
the corner of this edible sculpture was an exquisite chocolate Christmas
tree, decorated with delicate gossamer threads of white chocolate
and surrounded with intricate packages made of marzipan.
 
Chocolate holly leaves with hazelnut "berries",
marzipan holly, star cookies, and an edible chocolate greeting finish
the picture.
