Spoiler alert: Christmas log cakes aren't cheap, especially if you buy the really nice, glossy ones from hotels. If you go for a hefty cake (>1kg) with premium ingredients, it's getting more and more common to fork out a 3-digit sum.

Of course, there are reasons why we're willing to pay so much for log cakes. One, they're like Swiss rolls on steroids, what's not to love? Two, your next health screening is many months away. Plenty of time to hit the gym in remorse and work off the holiday indulgence later.

But before you make your purchase, check if you can get a log cake at a steal. The secret lies in your pocket-with the right credit card, you could save some cash this Christmas and use it on Christmas gifts instead. We present the best Christmas log cake promotions in Singapore.
