To assemble Swiss roll
1. Carefully turn the baked sponge cake onto a piece of baking/parchment paper.
2. Slowly peel off the attached baking/parchment paper from the cake.
3. Place a new piece of baking/parchment paper over the sponge. Invert the sponge again.
4. Slice out a small piece of sponge on a 45-degree angle at another end, so the end of sponge
will neatly attached to the sponge at the end of rolling.
5. Make few slits on the whole cake. Spread evenly a layer of whipped cream and spread all

6. With the shorter side/breadth facing you, roll the cake up tightly to form a swiss roll.

Wrap with cling wrap and chill in the fridge to allow the swiss roll to set. Slice to serve.
I draw out a stencil of the swirl pattern and I draw out again on the line parchment paper.
I believe some of you have come across strawberry print like or teddy bear, or angry bird on the swiss roll, right ... hmm...I'm just no good in drawing, it might come out something else...
This swiss roll sponge cake texture is so soft and Sonia is right, and I loves this very much!
Thank you Sonia!
