Chocolate roll cake with coffee and mascarpone cream – notes
Tiramisu roll cake is a simple chocolate-coffee cake inspired by Italian tiramisu.
Theoretically, I should have prepared a white sponge cake for the roll, but it seemed to me that chocolate would fit better here.
So I baked a cocoa sponge cake with added instant coffee.
After cooling, I soaked the cake with sweet coffee with a hint of amaretto liqueur and spread it with a simple cream made from mascarpone cheese and whipped cream.
Finally, I sprinkled the whole thing with bitter cocoa.
Tiramisu roll cake is very simple to make and tastes delicious :)
If you’ve never made a roll cake before, don’t be afraid, it’s not that difficult!
How to make chocolate sponge cake for a roll cake – tips
The most important thing is to roll the cake immediately after baking.
Don’t wait for the cake to cool, because then you won’t be able to roll it – it will crack.
I always bake the sponge cake on baking paper.
After baking, I carefully flip it over with the paper and place the cake on a towel sprinkled with powdered sugar.
I peel off the baking paper and immediately roll up the sponge cake with the towel – along the longer side.
I set aside the rolled cake for about an hour until it cools completely.
The hot-rolled sponge cake will not crack later when you add the cream to it.
