My DH has decided that it would MAKE his Christmas if I made a yule log for him. I have never done this before, do I have to use a special cake type or will will a mix be okay, do I have to make it a sponge cake? Help or tips would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

here's a link to the one they made on Sara's Secrets (Food TV).

there's also a gameplan link at then end of the recipe w/ advice to make the process go easier.
basically, it's just a sponge cake, iced, rolled and then decorated.
the big debate seems to be marzipan or fondant for the mushrooms.
