An artificial firelog having a support surface, a viewing surface, and a pair of end surfaces is produced by moving a component mixture through an extrusion bore containing an extrusion die. The component mixture is divided by a blade extending the diameter of the extrusion die, thereby forming a flat rear surface on each stream of the component mixture. The blade additionally contains a cylindrical mandrel at approximately the center of the blade for forming a channel on the component mixture at substantially the center of the flat rear surface. The component mixture is then cut to desired lengths to form an artificial firelog.
