Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 75 grams All-purpose flour
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 4 Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 240 milliliters Heavy cream
- 30 grams Powdered sugar
- 150 grams Fresh strawberries
- 100 grams Fresh blueberries
- 100 grams Fresh raspberries
- 15 grams Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease the paper.
In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to beat the eggs and granulated sugar together until the mixture is pale, thick, and tripled in volume, about 5-7 minutes.
Gently fold the vanilla extract into the egg mixture, followed by the flour mixture. Use a spatula to fold carefully to avoid deflating the batter.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the sponge springs back when lightly touched, and the edges begin to pull away from the sides of the pan.
While the sponge is baking, lay a clean kitchen towel on a flat surface and dust it generously with powdered sugar.
Once the sponge is out of the oven, immediately invert it onto the prepared towel and carefully peel off the parchment paper. Starting from one short end, roll the sponge cake up with the towel inside it to form a log. Let it cool completely rolled up.
Prepare the filling by whipping the heavy cream and powdered sugar together until soft peaks form. Chop the strawberries into small pieces and gently fold them, along with the blueberries and raspberries, into the whipped cream.
Once the sponge is completely cool, carefully unroll it. Spread the berry and cream mixture evenly over the surface, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Re-roll the sponge, this time without the towel, to form a filled roll. Transfer it seam-side down to a serving platter.
Dust the roll with powdered sugar and garnish with additional berries if desired. Slice and serve refrigerated for a delightful summer treat.
