Preheat your oven to 180Β°C (350Β°F). Line a 23x33 cm (9x13 inch) baking tray with parchment paper.
In a bowl, sift together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs with 70 grams of erythritol until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes using a hand mixer.
Gently fold in the vanilla extract and dry ingredients into the egg mixture, ensuring not to deflate the eggs.
Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking tray, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes until the cake springs back when touched lightly.
While the cake bakes, prepare a clean kitchen towel and sprinkle it lightly with the remaining erythritol.
Once baked, turn the cake out onto the towel, remove the parchment paper, and roll the cake gently with the towel starting from the short edge. Let it cool completely.
In a saucepan over low heat, combine the heavy cream and sugar-free dark chocolate. Stir constantly until the chocolate is melted and the ganache is smooth.
Set the ganache aside to cool to room temperature. It will thicken as it cools.
Once the cake is cool, carefully unroll it and spread a layer of the chocolate ganache evenly on top, saving a bit for the topping.
Reroll the cake and place it seam side down on a serving platter.
Cover the roll with the remaining chocolate ganache.
Sprinkle the unsweetened shredded coconut on top for garnish.
Chill the roll in the fridge for at least 2 hours before serving to set properly.
