To prepare the Hannaford Holiday Log, simply remove it from the freezer and place it in the refrigerator to thaw. The thawing time can vary, but it generally takes several hours. Once fully thawed, it can be sliced and served. For an enhanced presentation, you might consider adding a dusting of powdered sugar, a dollop of whipped cream, or fresh berries. It is best enjoyed chilled, straight from the refrigerator.
