Hi mycoffee,
Thanks for your compliments.
Happy trying!!
yochana, you never seize to amaze me with your talent and creativeness! Ever since you started blogging, I've been thinking, "okay, I definately have to try today's recipe from yochana" and I procrastinate. So here I am, with about a million different ideas from you! thanks for your inspirations! One of these days I'll stop drooling and start baking your recipes!
This looks like an easy recipe to try for me. Yeah, love this roll, so very cute!
Lucy
thanx for this recipe.. really soft n nice to eat =)
Hi Yochana
I am a novice in baking and love to try your marble dot roll. When you pipe out the choc batter, will it be as round as yours? do you remove the skin of the cake before you roll? Thanks
Oh my gosh!!!! This is incredible.
anonymous,
seems that you have some experience in making swiss roll. For optima sponge mix, normally it's better to take off the skin before rolling to prevent the swiss roll from splitting open after some time. If you pipe your chocolate batter properly, you should be able to make round dots like mine. You can use a round nozzle to help you in this case but I didn't, I just cut the piping bag. Too lazy to wash the nozzle. LOL...
Very beautiful cake! is there any substitute for optima flour? i would love to try this recipe
delia,
You can substitute with plain flour and sugar but it's a different recipe. Optima flour is acutally, flour, sugar and some baking agents and I don't know their proportion. You can use any swiss roll recipe but use the concept of the piping bag to pipe the dots. It will still look good.
Your pics always make me drool...can i ask you what ovalette is and is it vital for making swiss roll???
can i substitute it with something else if i cannot find this?
Hi LittleNoodle,
Ocalette is a cake stabilizer and it's optional. No need to substitute with anything. Without ovalette the sponge will still rise becausen optima flour has got rising agent inside.

Hi Lucy,
How do u get the swissroll in ur pic to be without skin? Did u :
1) remove the swissroll immediately once its bake onto a greaseproof paper dredged with caster sugar ( ie skin side down )..then
2) turn this swissroll over to another grease proof paper (ie skin side up ),.... then
3) only roll up??
Ive tried to do this but not surprisingly, my swissroll always crack!
Becky
Hi Becky,
After baking, I just remove the cake from the pan onto a wire rack. When it's cooled, I rub the skin off with my palms, spread butter cream and roll up. No caster sugar....

Hi Aunty,
I did the Marble Dot Roll today. taste nice and not really sweet. I have follow your instruction to pipe the chocolate batter and i got the round dots. After i roll it i cant see the chocolate dot is all inside, should i skin side down and roll it. For your advice pls.
Thnx
LOveswhisper
Hi Lovewhisper,
yes the skin should be inside but you can remove the skin by rubbing it off.

Hi Aunty
Sorry to bother you again. I have couple of Q actually.I bought this soft shortening from Phoon Huat it was recommended by the sales person there. Normally i used crisco to do my buttercream frosting but they say soft shortening is better. I am looking for hi-ratio shortening but i dunno where can i find it this soft shortening is made from palm vegetable oil,antioxidant.Aunty do u have any idea about this??
What is the difference between heavy cream and Fresh cream?
For sour cream can i substitute with other things. And where can i get sour cream?
Thanks again Aunty
Loveswhisper
Hi Loveswhisper,
I use Crisco shortening and no others. Try going to Jasons or Carrefour. they have a few types of shortening.
Heavy cream is more or less like the 35% fat whipping cream.
Sour cream can be found in most supermarkets and cold storage. NTUC sells sour cream. You can use yoghurt instead of sour cream but then again, it all depends on what you are making.

Dear Aunty,
Thanx for your clear explanation. Today i went to cold storage i bought few items buttermilk, thicken cream and sour cream...yipes!!!
I'm so happy to have all this supplies at home i will try more recipe from your blog. I really love and enjoy looking at those yummy recipe..U are great and very talented!
Thanx again Aunty for your generousity GOD BLESS YOU!
Hi aunty,
can I subsitute cake flour with optima flour as I can't find it in NZ.
Thanks
Hi anonymous,
no you cannot substitute with cake flour. Optima flour is a special sponge mix with sugar and baking agent added.

hi aunty lucy
What you mean by 'optimal flour' ? Can I use s-raising flour or any other flour for this cake ?
Thanks.
Hi mscake,
optima flour is a premix flour for making sponge cake. Also known as sponge cake mix.

Thanks aunty lucy.
Hi Aunt Yo,
I have just made this Marble Dot Roll. Managed to get the Marble Dot design, n the taste is excellent. So soft the texture. But I cant roll. It breaks apart when I roll. So sad. Any techniques to roll? Thanks.
HI Sally,
Did you put a piece of greaseproof paper at the bottom to help you in rolling? You can read all the swiss roll comments and I have mentioned a couple of times how to roll a swiss roll.

hi Aunty,
can i change the chocolate emulco/paste to coco powder?
thanks
elaine
Hi elaine
