Pandan Chiffon Swiss Roll 班兰蛋糕卷



Tada...My first successful swiss roll
Dunno how many times i have baked this swiss roll but this time is the most successful one,
so happy when i managed to roll it nicely without crack ^^
the previous attempts all cracked and this may be due to overbake of the cake which turns the cake too dry.
My mum love it very much since she is a pandan-flavour lover and my dad thumbs up too.

But the thing i m not happy with is that the whipped cream is too thick, will cause my tummy bigger n bigger ><
Next time must reduce the amount of the cream

I used pandan paste this time since i dun hav of pandan leaves in my garden, so maybe is a bit artificial,
but just once is no harm right?

Here are more pics of the roll, sorry for poor quality of the pics since my skill in photographing is really ...u know

                   Why the cake looked like yellowish green? It is green actually.


                                The cake is very fluffy and spongy!!!
