Lemon Swiss Roll
May 10, 2024 11:30 AM
Lemon curd and whipped cream get tucked into a springy sponge cake in this Lemon Swiss Roll recipe. So zesty and creamy at the same time; a bite of this cake is like a symphony of light and fluffy textures in your mouth.
I love my buttercream layer cakes, but a simple sponge cake with lemony, cloud-like filling always hits the spot. Lemon curd swirls throughout the lemon whipped cream filling within a chiffon cake-style Swiss roll.
One pan and one filling - Swiss rolls cakes are quite simple to make without sacrificing flavor and style.
Where jelly roll cakes are filled with jelly (as the name suggests), I love filling this lemon cake roll with fluffy whipped cream. Swirl Lemon curd into the filling for a big punch of citrus flavor.
This cake is very light. It is similar to an Asian-style sponge cake. Not too sweet, yet creamy and cloud-like.
