Hi Kitchen Corner,

Thanks for your nice words. In order to get a neat round roll, rested the swiss roll on a curve surface.

hi Happy Flour,
I was just wondering if you really need to put the corn oil and the milk in because I found a couple of other websites with recipes that didn't put corn oil or the milk. I wonder if it will make a difference to the swiss roll? Thanks. I am trying to make it for my mom because she likes them.

Hi Anonymous,

It depend on the recipe which you mention. Most swiss roll recipe which I came across either with oil or liquid, without either one or both the roll will be rather dry and crack easily.

Hi Happy Flour,
Your swiss rolls look yummilicious!!! I want to bake this swiss roll for my family today. However, i noticed that this vanilla sponge needs to be baked at 175C for 15-20 minutes while all your other swiss roll recipes require the sponge to be baked at 200C for 10 minutes only. Is this correct? Why does this sponge need to be baked for a longer time at a lower temperature? Please reply :)
Confused

Hi Anonymous,

This is chiffon cake method so it need to bake at a lower temperature for a longer time.
