The leaves on my blueberry bushes have now turned the most beautiful red colour yet can you believe that I'm still picking fruit from them, amazing. I picked enough on Sunday to take for my mum and dad to have a sprinkle of them over their cereal each day this week. I like the idea of them in a chocolate log.

Thanks for your comments. I'm so pleased you've had such a good year with your blueberry bushes ... so good to be able to share them with family.
Low Carb chocolate log and blueberries do work well together.

Oh my, these look good. This would make a nice Christmas gift. Anything chocolate, and I'm there. :)

Thanks for your comment. Yes, with this 'base' you can use many different fillings, although I do like blueberries, or even a mix of fruits would be nice.
All the best Jan
