Kids are in vacation, obviously am bit busy with them.Even my oven is quite busy now, we are in baking mood. Two days back, my lil one asked me to bake a cake with jam, i know he was asking to make a roulade aka swiss roll, he helped me and we baked the simple vanilla roll with green and rose food colour as something christmassy. This roll is really very quite easy to prepare and you can also prepare them with your favourite flavour or favourite spread eventhough my choice went for strawberry jam. You can serve this super spongy swiss roll as dessert with a scoop of icecream or with a simple chocolate sauce.
My theme for this week's blogging marathon theme is kid's delight-desserts, obviously swiss roll can be served very well for dessert with an icecream or with a sauce. If you dont like adding the food colour, just skip them.
