Mango Swiss Roll Cake with Mascarpone Cheese
January 27, 2022
Mango Swiss roll cake makes an impressive dessert recipe and it is so easy to make!

This excellent cake goes by many names : it is known as roll cake, roulade, jelly roll or cream roll.
If you hear one of these names being mentioned, then you know they are referring to a Swiss roll.
Swiss roll was one of my favourite roll cakes. I mentioned was as I no longer can consume the overly sweet, sugar loaded commercial roll cakes.
Swiss roll cakes are commonly filled with jam and cream.

But I will go through steps by steps on how I bake my mango Swiss roll cake.
1. Sift plain flour, corn flour and baking powder.
Alternative either use cake flour (if that is available near you) or use self raising flour.
Plain flour, corn flour and baking powder are staples in my larder!
I prefer to make my own cake flour or self raising flour.
Below is how I make my own cake flour.
2. I am using large eggs (each egg weigh with shell approximately 52 to 55g )
Separate the eggs into 2 separate bowls.
3. Whisk egg yolks with sugar until it becomes pale and creamy.
4. Make sure to clean your whisk balloon thoroughly.
Otherwise, you may have problem in whisking egg white to peak.

Mix gently as to not to deflate the air in the egg white.
6. Transfer into the whisked egg white bowl.
7. Add flour in 3 batches and gently mix after every flour addition.
8. Transfer to Swiss roll baking tray.
Line with parchment paper.
9. Once baked, flip the sheet cake over, using another tray. (see video)
Careful the tray is still piping hot.

Ingredients
Basic Swiss roll cake recipe
- 80g plain flour

- 1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions
How to bake swiss roll cake.
- Preheat oven to 220C
- Cut greaseproof paper to fit a swiss roll baking pan (23 by 33 cm)
- Sift flour, baking powder and corn flour (see my video on how to make cake flour)
- Separate egg white and egg yolks
- Whisk egg yolks with 50g sugar until pale and creamy.
- Whisk egg white into a meringue.
- Add the remainder caster sugar in 2 batches.
- Mix a little bit of meringue into egg yolk mixture.
- Stir gently as not to disturb the airy meringue too much.
- Add flour mixture (a third at a time) and stir gently.
- Pour the swiss roll cake mixture into the baking pan.
- Bake at 220C for 10 to 12 minutes.
- Once taken out from the oven, leave it to cool for 5 minutes.
- Then flip the cake onto another baking paper.
- Cover with cloth to avoid the cake becoming dry.
- Cut the both end of the short edges of the cake at 45 degrees.
- Then using the greaseproof paper to roll the sheet cake into a tight roll.
- Again cover with cloth and leave it to cool completely.
- Meanwhile prepare mascarpone cheese filling.
- Mix mascarpone cheese with 3 tablespoon of sugar (add more if extra sweetness is desired)
- Once the cake is cool to touch, unroll the cake and spread mascarpone filling.
- At the long end of the swiss roll cake, arrange diced mango.
- Roll into a tight roll.
- Wrap with cling film and refrigerate at least for 4 hours ( I prefer overnight).
- Slice and serve mango swiss roll cake.
Notes
a. You can use cake flour or self raising flour instead of the flour, corn flour mixture.
Just that cake flour makes the cake softer and fluffier.
b. Substitute mascarpone cheese with double / thickened cream.
Mascarpone cheese is much creamier than thickened cream.
c. Add vanilla essence to the swiss roll cake batter
