  • Baking & Filling the Roll Cake:
  • Pour the batter into a parchment lined pan., flatten the top, bang the pan twice to remove large air bubbles. Bake for 25-27 minutes in a 170-degree preheat oven. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean when it’s done.

  • After it has cooled down: Put the tapioca starch and powdered sugar in a bowl. add the heavy cream and whip it to make a thick cream.
    .
    Apply 1tsp condensed milk to the cake sheet, then apply the heavy cream evenly, and slightly thicken the cream at the beginning of the roll.
  • Roll the cake up starting with the side that you put more cream on. Wrap it tightly in your baking paper and secure it with a rubber band to hold its shape if necessary. Let it rest in the freezer for at least 1 hour.
  • Serve
  • Take it out of the fridge and cut both ends to showcase its true beauty. Snack on the ends you just cut off. Pipe on the remaining whipped cream (2tbsp) and the cherries. Enjoy!
