There is nothing quite like a good old-fashioned Swiss Roll, the sponginess of it, the jam centre and the way it just makes you want to sit in the sun and drink sweet sweet tea while you wish you could nap like a fat spoilt cat. I love myself a slice or three of Swiss Roll but to tell you the truth I have never ever made one. Ever. So I pulled a recipe out and together with NJ we whipped up this vanilla flavoured apricot jam Swiss Roll.
This cake is really not hard to make, I thought that the rolling of the sponge might freak me out a bit but it rolled up just like the recipe said it would and it didn’t break! Hooray. It was also a great recipe to make with Nina because it’s a fun and easy cake to put together. She unrolled it, spread the jam, rolled it up again and then sprinkled it with icing sugar, so she basically made the whole thing 🙂 Rex was the official taste-tester on this project. It also didn’t require too many ingredients, which is a huge plus!
