Introduction
A pastry chef technique for creating a perfectly rolled cake for afternoon tea. A thin sponge sheet is brushed with light ginger syrup, coated with a delicate layer of cream, and tightly rolled around a fruit center before freezing and slicing.
Step 1
Brush the thin sponge cake sheet evenly with a light ginger syrup to infuse ginger flavor and moisture into the cake.
Step 2
Spread a very thin, even layer of cream over the entire surface of the cake sheet.
Step 3
Place the pre-formed cylindrical fruit insert along the edge of the cake sheet.
Step 4
Roll the cake around the insert using parchment paper, then use the edge of a baking tray to tighten and shape the roll firmly.
Step 5
Freeze the rolled cake until set, then slice into individual portions and garnish with sliced fruit.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Spread the cream in a very thin layer—similar to butter on a sandwich—to prevent it from overflowing when rolling.
Use a flat baking tray pressed against the parchment paper to tighten the cylinder and achieve a uniform shape.
Freeze the rolled cake before slicing to ensure neat, clean edges on each serving.
