Cake n Roll - Durian Chocolate Cake Roll

Since the last cake roll I made, I received lot of compliment about how pretty the cake is. So I decide to make another one with leopard skin style. This time I made a chocolate sponge for the roll to create the base of leopard skin. I had search over the Internet for some leopard skin stencil and just realize there are million different color combinations, so I decide to go with my own style.

You may wonder why durian and chocolate? Well I’m always a big fan of durian, it a one of those either you love it or you hate it food. I always have the theory that if you love durian, you would love blue cheese and also smelly tofu (one of my favorite Asian street food).

Cake n Roll - I ❤️ Mango Cake Roll

I feel like I haven’t been baking cake for a while now. Since Sydney had a pretty bad weather weekend, I couldn’t do much outdoor activity so I finally have time stay home and bake something after a week of busy catch up section with my friends and surprise them with my new pixie haircut.

When it comes to baking cake, majority are high in sugar and butter which not my cup of tea, and so for my family. Among all the cake I’ve made in the past. My mum loves the most of my cake roll which is light, soft and not as sweet. I got this recipe from one of my favourite Japanese cook which pretty much made me addicted with cooking and baking so much. This cake roll is a Japanese version which is lighter in texture but still yummy. I’m going to spoil the secret ingredient of why this cake roll is so soft and will not crack as easy as other. And this is the first time I draw on the cake roll and I’m really happy with the result, feel free to be creative. This is really fun.
