Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 10x15 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In another bowl, whisk together the almond milk and apple cider vinegar, letting it sit for a few minutes to activate and curdle slightly.
Add the coconut sugar, vanilla extract, and canola oil to the almond milk and whisk until combined.
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan and use a spatula to spread it out to the edges.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the cake springs back to touch.
Carefully remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes, then remove the cake with parchment paper from the pan.
Gently roll the cake from the shorter end, keeping the parchment paper inside, and let it cool completely in this shape.
Once cooled, unroll the cake and remove the parchment paper.
Spread an even layer of vegan chocolate spread across the cake surface, leaving a small border around the edges.
Top the chocolate spread layer with coconut whipped cream, being careful not to overfill.
Gently roll the cake back into a log shape, using the parchment paper to help keep it tight.
Place the Swiss roll seam-side down on a serving platter and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
