Hi hi,
is me Sandy. The whipping cream, which type are u using? Dairy or non dairy and what is the difference?

Hi Sandy,

I'm using non dairy whipping cream. Dairy/UHT whipping cream contain 35% fat which is richer, usually use to make ice-cream, puff filling, etc. Non-dairy whipping cream is light and creamy, is usually use for cake frosting, mousse, etc.

Hi Sammy,

There is whipping cream in the swiss roll, you have to chill it first for the whipping cream to set so that it easier to slice.
