The roll with whipped cream and cherries is made from a simple sponge cake, prepared with eggs, sugar, flour, and a little oil. After baking, the cake is rolled while it is still warm, then left to cool. The filling is added after the sheet is carefully unrolled. The cherries and whipped cream give it a fresh taste, and the dessert is served cold. Quick Info Total time: not specified in the original recipe Preparation time: not specified Baking time: not specified; the cake is baked in a preheated oven at medium heat Servings: not specified; depends on how the roll is sliced Difficulty: easy Recipe type: rolled cake dessert with whipped cream and cherries Ingredients 5 eggs 5 tablespoons sugar 5 tablespoons flour 1 tablespoon oil 200 ml whipped cream Cherries, as desired and as needed for filling For decoration, whipped cream can be used and optionally glaze. Preparation method 1. Separate the eggs into yolks and whites. It is useful for the egg whites to be placed in a clean bowl, without traces of yolk, to whip well. 2. Put the yolks in a bowl and beat them together with the sugar and oil. Then add the flour and mix the composition. 3. In another bowl, whip the egg whites to a foam, along with a pinch of salt. 4. Incorporate the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture. Mix using a spatula, with bottom-up movements. Do not mix vigorously, so the foam does not deflate before baking. 5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake it in the preheated oven at medium heat. The original recipe does not specify the exact baking time, so the cake should be monitored during the process. 6. After the cake is baked, roll it up and let it cool. This is the stage where the sheet takes the shape of a roll. 7. When the cake is cool, carefully unroll it. Spread the whipped cream and arrange the cherries for filling. 8. Roll the sheet again, this time with the filling inside. Work carefully, especially if the cake has completely cooled and is no longer as flexible. 9. Decorate the roll with whipped cream and, if desired, with glaze. 10. Keep the roll cold and serve it cold. Why I make the recipe often This is a useful recipe when I want a simple dessert, without complicated cream and without many ingredients. The cake is prepared from a few basic products, and the filling can be added after it has cooled. The combination of whipped cream and cherries is pleasant enough that the roll does not need many additional elements. Another advantage is that the dessert can be decorated quickly. The whipped cream on top and the glaze are enough for a neat appearance, without a separate elaborate decorating step. Tips Follow the order in the recipe: the yolks are mixed separately, the whites are whipped, and then they are incorporated with the spatula. Mixing bottom-up helps maintain a more aerated composition. The cake must be rolled after baking and left to cool before filling. The whipped cream should not be placed on the cake while it is still warm, as it may lose its consistency. Carefully unroll the sheet before adding the filling. If you force the cake, it may break. The cherries should be distributed over the surface of the cake, without being placed all in one spot. This way, each slice will have both whipped cream and cherries. The amount of cherries is not specified in the original recipe. Put enough to cover the cake in a suitable layer, without overloading it so much that rolling becomes difficult. Substitutions The recipe does not provide substitutions for the main ingredients. For the filling, cherries can be used in the desired amount, depending on how rich you want the roll to be. Whipped cream remains the main element of the filling and decoration, so it is good to have enough for both uses. If you want a simpler decoration, you can use whipped cream only inside and keep the glaze as an outer element, but the basic recipe mentions decorating with whipped cream and optional glaze. Variations The roll can be left with only whipped cream and cherries inside, without glaze. This is the simplest version. For a richer appearance, whipped cream can also be used on the outside, then the optional glaze can be added. The glaze is not mandatory, so it can be omitted without changing the method of preparing the cake. The amount of cherries can be adjusted to taste. Fewer cherries allow the whipped cream to be more evident, while a more generous layer emphasizes the fruit. Serving ideas The roll is served cold, sliced. It is suitable as a dessert after a meal or for an occasion when you want to prepare something simple and easy to portion. For more attractive slices, cut the roll after it has been kept cold and use a clean knife. Before serving, it can be decorated with whipped cream and glaze, according to the recipe. Frequently asked questions Can the cake be prepared without separating the eggs? The recipe indicates separating the eggs and whipping the egg whites to foam with a pinch of salt. For this variant, it is important to follow the mentioned method, as the egg whites are incorporated separately into the mixture. When are the whipped cream and cherries added? The whipped cream and cherries are added after the baked cake has been rolled and cooled. The sheet is gently unrolled, the filling is placed, and then it is rolled up again. Is the glaze mandatory? No. The glaze is optional. The roll can be decorated with whipped cream or served without additional decoration after it is filled and rolled. At what temperature is the cake baked? The recipe only specifies that the cake is baked in a preheated oven at medium heat. The exact temperature and baking time are not mentioned. How many servings does it yield? The number of servings is not specified. It depends on the length of the roll and the thickness of the slices. The indicated quantities prepare a single roll. Nutritional values The values are estimates and cannot be calculated precisely, as the amount of cherries, the type of whipped cream, or the number of slices are not mentioned. As a guideline, for a roll divided into 8 slices and prepared with regular sweetened whipped cream, a slice may have approximately 180–240 kcal. Approximately, a slice may contain: Calories: approximately 180–240 kcal Proteins: approximately 4–6 g Carbohydrates: approximately 25–32 g Fats: approximately 7–11 g Cherries contribute carbohydrates and natural sugars, and whipped cream can significantly change the caloric value depending on how much is used and its composition. These values are indicative, not an exact nutritional analysis. Storage and reheating The roll is served cold and stored in the refrigerator until serving. The whipped cream and cherries make the dessert suitable for cold storage, not for keeping at room temperature for long periods. It is not reheated. If it has been stored in the refrigerator, it is served directly cold, sliced. The exact storage time is not specified in the original recipe, so it is better to consume it while the cake and whipped cream maintain their pleasant texture.
