So happen that I attend this cake decorating class on the following week and thanks to the kind and generous teacher to demo a Swiss roll to us. The demo do helps in boosting confident. keke~ Here I come little fellow!

2. Wash orange throughly, slice thinly, boil in the sugar syrup till the white flesh become transparent. Pat dry and arrange them on baking paper in baking pan.

* Note: Do not arrange the oranges slice too near to each other or the cake might be a bit difficult to roll/break during roll.

8. Remove the cake from cake tray once it is out from oven. Inverted the cake and tear out the baking paper but leave the baking paper remains cover on the cake to prevent the cake from drying.

To roll: the side with orange slices faces down, spread desire flavor of jam and roll. Leave the roll in fridge for 1 hour before serve.

Hippomama's mini Note:

1. Adjust sugar level in the recipe against the sweetness of the oranges you have. My oranges is sour and 60g of sugar is just nice to yield a not too sweet cake base.
2. Please adjust the temperature according to your oven. My oven is hotter than usual oven, I only use 170c for 11mins for the cake to cook throughly.
2. Using 60g eggs.
