Swiss rolls are so much fun to make, most of you think it is a complicated thing to make, but i am telling it is more easy than making any other cakes or desert because it just take less than 12 mins to bake and the batter can be made in less than 10 mins and it just need a handful of ingredients. Plus it has no fat in them so it is pretty healthy.

can u pls tell me either eggs can be replaced with other ingredient in this recipe?
Aarthi
@kishinTHere is no replacement for eggs in this recipe.

I baked it for ten minutes. the appearance was same like your cake. But it was not spongy and flexible hence it could not be rolled. As I rolled, it broke in three parts 😛 and looked like a clumsy Swiss sandwich :)))...my brothers teased me a lott and I am sure it's going down in our family history records to narrate it to my children and grand-children. :-/ :)).
Is there a possibility that by adding baking soda or baking powder it could have become spongy and flexible?
Myra
Aarthi
@Myrai think u haven't whipped the egg enought. Whip it till it is airy and fluffy, that will give the fluffyness and flexiblity. baking soda and baking powder is not necessary
