Cooking Instructions
- 1
Place the cake flour and cocoa into a small bowl and mix together well. Spread out paper in a mold, and preheat the oven to 180°C.
- 2
Crack eggs into the bowl, add in sugar, and mix immediately.
- 3
Place the bowl into a hot water bath, continuously mix with an egg beater, and heat until the egg mixture becomes warm (about 40°C). (I do this right on the flame, but feel free to use a hot water bath if you are worried about it.
- 4
Touch it and remove it from the hot water bath once it feels warm (about 40°C), and whip at a high speed with a hand mixer.
- 5
Whip at a high speed until it gradually becomes fluffy, the bubbles become fine, and the hand mixer leaves a trail, and finally whip at a low speed for 30 seconds!
- 6
Remove the hand mixer, and sift in the cake flour and cocoa so that it sits on the surface.
- 7
Use a rubber spatula to draw a curl, (pink line) and lightly mix it, while turning the bowl in the opposite direction at the same time (yellow line).
- 8
After mixing about 30 times the flouriness will have dissipated, and you won't be able to see the powder, but if you stop here then it will become a rough and gritty batter, so stir it a bit more...
- 9
It's best to keep mixing until it produces a glaze! It will be gritty if you don't mix it enough, and it will turn into a springy batter if you over mix it, so get your own feel for it!
- 10
Pour Step 9 evenly into a pan lined with parchment paper or a baking sheet, and bake in an oven preheated to 180°C for 12 minutes while keeping an eye on the color.
- 11
If you are worried about it then stick it with a toothpick to see if it comes out clean, and then it's OK! Place the cake on a rack to cool.
- 12
Place the heavy cream and sugar into a bowl, and add in the cocoa while sifting it through a tea strainer. (There will be balls of cocoa remaining if you don't do this).
- 13
Mix slowly using an egg beater, until the cocoa blends in. It will be difficult to mix at first, but it will gradually mix together.
- 14
It clumps up easily, so you can continue to use the egg beater to do it, but you can also use a hand mixer if it is too much of a bother! Be careful not to over whip it!
- 15
After it has cooled, peel the paper off of the cake from Step 11 and place it back on top, and spread out the whipped cream thickly at the front, and thinly at the back.
- 16
After lifting up the end of the paper closest to you, start to roll and then squeeze it in.
- 17
While holding the paper from the front, make sure the overlap faces towards the bottom.
- 18
If you let the cake cool in the fridge it will settle down and become easier to cut, but the cream right after cooking is fluffy, and I like it.
- 19
When cutting this, dip the knife into hot water between each cut, plus it's also good to move it back and forth without adding force. Use a bread cutting knife to do it if you have one!

Moist Cocoa Roll Cake Moist Cocoa Roll Cake
I wanted to eat a rich roll cake that would melt in your mouth. I experimented several times and finally came up with this recipe.This sponge cake has cocoa powder inside, so it loses its airy texture very easily. So mix the batter as quick as possible after you add the cocoa powder. However, if you don't mix enough after you add the milk, the sponge will be too fluffy and crack when you roll it. Make sure to put two layers of parchment paper in the baking tray. Recipe by tai51 cookpad.japan -
Fluffy Cocoa, Chocolate Roll Cake Fluffy Cocoa, Chocolate Roll Cake
I wanted to recreate a roll cake based on my mom's recipe book which was published more than 30 years ago, but the ingredient ratios were not quite the same as today. (LOL) So I made some modifications so that the cake will not lose volume even if I roll it up. ♪If the meringue is too stiff, it will be hard to incorporate the meringue into the batter later on. Adjust the amount of cream to your taste. If you have only a small amount of cream, you'll need to roll up the cake tightly and the cake is more likely to crack. The size of the baking tray should be 27- 30 cm. I used a 30 cm baking tray for the profile photo. Recipe by Lesser Panda cookpad.japan -

Fluffy Chocolate Roll Cake Fluffy Chocolate Roll Cake
My other fluffy and moist roll cake recipe I made was rated very highly so I decided to make a chocolate version too.When mixing in the cake flour or mixing the cocoa batter, stir gently to avoid getting rid of too many air bubbles.For Step 9, I like the crust of the sponge so I don't take it off if it won't separate easily, but if you want the roll cake to look its best, I recommend removing it.

Cocoa Crepe Roll Cake with Whole Strawberries Cocoa Crepe Roll Cake with Whole Strawberries
I wanted to eat a roll cake, but using the oven was too much of a bother...so I thought this up. I used "mille-feuille crepes" (multi-layered crepe cakes) as my inspiration. I made the crepes in a square tamagoyaki (omelet) pan the crepes were all the same shape and easy to roll up!The cream will ooze out from the edges if it is too liquid when you roll the crepes up, but if you whip it properly it's easier to roll. Alternatively, instead of rolling up each crepe, try stacking up all the crepes first and then roll them all together in one go. This produces a neater roll.Use any leftover crepe batter or filling to eat as regular crepes! Recipe by yaburie cookpad.japan -

Matcha Roll Cake White Chocolate Cream Matcha Roll Cake White Chocolate Cream
This version of matcha cake is based on Fluffy Cocoa Chocolate Roll Cake. I have increased the amount of cream compared to the cocoa version. The more cream you have, the more easier it will be to roll up, even with a thicker cake.Make the meringue stiff enough so that it will not drop even if you turn the bowl upside down. Then turn the electric mixer on low speed for 2-3 minutes, and whip until really smooth. The meringue should form stiff peaks but should not be too firm. The electric mixer can be used for steps 2-4. The cream might seem a bit watery but it will thicken as it chills in the fridge. Recipe by Lesser Panda cookpad.japan -
Melt in Your Mouth Chocolate Chiffon Roll Cake Melt in Your Mouth Chocolate Chiffon Roll Cake
I tried making a roll cake with chocolate added to the batter, but it came out heavy and was difficult to roll. So I tried it with just cocoa and the result was a fluffy, moist cake perfectly balanced with rich chocolate cream.- Adjust the baking time and ingredient amounts to the oven and baking pan you're using. The ingredients in parentheses show the amounts for making this recipe with 3 eggs.- I used dark chocolate this time, so I used 15 g of sugar, but please use the amount of sugar you like!- Don't worry if the cake rips a little when you roll it up. After a while, the ripped part will absorb back into the cake and won't be noticeable. After chilling in the refrigerator for 2 - 3 hours, cut the cake with a warm knife. It will slice beautifully this way. Recipe by satomako cookpad.japan -
