A Swiss roll, also known as a Swiss log or Swiss cake, is a rolled sponge cake filled with whipped cream, jam, icing, or various fillings such as buttercream, chocolate ganache, fudge, and marshmallow1. When properly prepared and sliced, a neat swirl is revealed. Despite its name, the origins of the “Swiss roll” are unclear. Recipes for cakes rolled around a layer of jam appeared in both England and the United States around the mid-nineteenth century under different names1.
While the Swiss roll may seem simple, making one from scratch can be quite challenging. From weighing ingredients and monitoring baking times to achieving a perfect roll, the process is both time-consuming and difficult to master. This complexity has prompted bakers to seek efficiency. Fortunately, modern solutions such as premixes, fillings, and other ready-to-use ingredients now simplify the production of flawless baked goods, making them accessible to both professionals and home bakers.
