Strawberry and Cream Swiss Roll

Strawberry and Cream Swiss Roll

This Strawberry and Cream Swiss Roll is a so light and airy cake.

When I made this cake roll, I was taken back to my childhood. Where we friends join together and have this cake in a bakery near my school. We save our pocket money especially for this jam filled cake roll.

In Bakeries, they fill and cover it with jam and roll it with desiccated coconut. Even today these cakes are hit. But in shops, the cake looks so dry with hard texture. So its time to try this super delicious cake at home.

Swiss Roll or Cake Roll is not a difficult cake, it needs little more attention to assemble the roll. It’s an easy recipe to follow with just three main ingredients – flour, eggs and powdered sugar.

Strawberry and cream swiss cake totally depends on the eggs for raise and soft texture. So the eggs and sugar has to be beaten for full 10 minutes, to make a good airy a sponge cake.

Coming to the filling, there are endless options to go with. It can be filled jam, cream, ganache or any fresh fruits. Here I used cream and fresh Strawberries.

Notes:

  • Bake it just till done, when a toothpick comes out clean. It will take around 10-12 min.
  • If over baked, the cake will go hard.
  • Rolling has to be done when its still hot. When you roll once cooled, it will break.
  • Filling like jam can be filled when cake is hot.
  • Cream, Ganache and all other fillings should be filled once the cake is completely cooled. Check how to make Ganache.
