The Maltese Christmas Log: A Healthy Twist on a Beloved Tradition
When December arrives in Malta, the aroma of festive baking fills homes across the islands. Among the most cherished traditions is the Christmas log—a decadent dessert that brings families together around the table. But what if you could enjoy this beloved treat without compromising your health goals or dietary needs?
At Anurakti, we've reimagined the traditional Maltese Christmas log for modern wellness. Our version is 100% sugar-free, vegan, and gluten-free—perfect for diabetics, celiacs, vegans, and anyone seeking guilt-free indulgence this holiday season.
The History of the Maltese Christmas Log
The Christmas log tradition in Malta has deep European roots, inspired by the French bûche de Noël. Maltese families have embraced this festive dessert for generations, making it a centerpiece of Christmas celebrations alongside traditional imbuljuta and qaghaq tal-ghasel.
Traditionally made with refined sugar, butter, eggs, and wheat flour, the classic Christmas log was off-limits for many Maltese families dealing with diabetes, celiac disease, or dairy intolerance. That's why we created a healthier alternative that honors tradition while embracing modern dietary needs.
What Makes Our Christmas Log Different?
100% Sugar-Free
We use natural sweeteners like agave, erythritol, and Stevia—no refined sugar, no blood sugar spikes. Safe for diabetics and perfect for anyone reducing sugar intake.
Completely Vegan
No eggs, no dairy, no animal products. Made with plant-based ingredients that deliver the same rich, creamy texture you expect from a traditional log.
Certified Gluten-Free
Safe for celiacs and gluten-sensitive individuals. We use premium gluten-free flours that create a moist, tender crumb.
Produced in our certified facility with strict quality controls. Every log meets the highest food safety standards.
