Necessary ingredients:

For the base:
- 5 eggs
- 5 tablespoons of sugar
- 5 tablespoons of flour
- 1 packet of vanilla sugar
- 5 tablespoons of oil
- a pinch of salt

For the cream:
- 500 ml of liquid cream
- 1 packet of caramel cream from Dr. Oetker

Preparation time: 15 minutes
Baking time: 15-20 minutes
Total time: 45 minutes

Step 1: Preparing the base
Start by separating the egg whites from the yolks. Make sure the bowl in which you will beat the egg whites is clean and dry to achieve a perfect foam. Use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites until fluffy. Add a pinch of salt, then add the sugar one tablespoon at a time, continuing to mix until you get a firm and glossy foam.

In another bowl, mix the yolks with the oil. Once you have obtained a homogeneous mixture, gradually add it over the egg white foam. Gently fold with a spatula, using up-and-down motions to avoid losing air from the mixture.

Sift the flour over the obtained mixture, along with the vanilla sugar, and mix carefully until homogeneous. Pour the mixture into a baking tray lined with parchment paper, ensuring it is evenly distributed.

Step 2: Baking the base
Preheat the oven to 180-200 degrees Celsius. Bake the base for 15-20 minutes, but be careful, as every oven bakes differently. The base is ready when it turns golden and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Once baked, remove it from the oven and turn it onto a damp towel, carefully rolling it to form a roll. Let it cool completely in this shape.

Step 3: Preparing the cream
While the base is cooling, you can prepare the cream. Put the liquid cream in a bowl and add the packet of caramel cream. Mix everything until the cream thickens and becomes airy. This step is essential to achieve a fine and delicious cream.

Step 4: Assembling the roll
Unroll the cooled base and spread 3/4 of the caramel cream over its entire surface. Roll it up again carefully, using the damp towel to help it maintain its shape. Use the remaining cream to decorate the roll, giving it an elegant appearance. You can also add some toasted nuts or almonds for extra texture and flavor.

Serving suggestions:
The caramel roll can be served plain or with a warm chocolate sauce on top. You can also add fresh fruits, such as raspberries or banana slices, to provide a delicious contrast to the sweetness of the cream. This recipe is perfect for any occasion, from parties to family gatherings.

Possible variations:
If you want to experiment, you can replace the caramel cream with chocolate or vanilla cream, thus adapting the dessert to your preferences. You can also add chocolate chunks or candied fruits to the base mixture for an even richer taste.

In conclusion, caramel roll is an accessible and refined dessert, perfect for impressing without putting in considerable effort. With this recipe, you can enjoy a sweet moment with your loved ones. Bon appétit!
