Ideas for artistic Christmas bread?
By Christmas I will have been baking my own bread for a year, and even if I say so myself, I'm getting quite good :-) So special thanks to all on this forum who have given freely of their help and advice.
I have the idea to make a decorative loaf to be a centre piece for a buffet table over the Christmas period, very much the same idea as having a harvest loaf in the shape of a wheatsheaf or the sun. Has anyone got any ideas or suggestions for such a celebration loaf? I don't want to make a fruit loaf or anything fancy like that 'cos I would want to eat it with left over cold meats, cheese and pickle, etc (in my mind this is the best sort of eating).
Thanks in advance
