21.05.2017 - Purple Purple Purple..... love purple. I have got this lovely Taro Paste which i just bought and how i love the fragrance that makes me think of something to bake and so i thought of making a simple Swiss Roll. The sponge cake so soft and fluffy! it was a success creation! The only thing i wasn't really like about is my sugar measurement not to my liking, it was too sweet for me, to those who love sweet, i think that sweetness level wouldn't be a problem, but for me i will definitely reduce sugar the next time, i will go for 35-40g :)
Back to the paste issue......I seriously like this brand "MAGLAM" very much, it is so thick, concentrate and the fragrance is so nature and strong. If you ever find this brand the nearest to you, get all of these flavours to stock for future use. So far its the best paste i have ever discovered. I've got Coffee Mocha, Chocolate, Pandan Wangi and the latest addition is the Taro/Yam flavour.... *hahaa... < *L*> You can use this in any pastry making like bread, cake, ice cream, kueh, frosting, crepes, waffles, pancakes etc....etc Its very useful indeed.
Little bit about my baking pan, I have a small oven, so my oven can only fit in 11" x 8.5". As you can see my Swiss Roll does look smaller, thicker, not so much rolls.. If you have a bigger oven, you can used a pan size 11" x 14" and the swiss roll will definitely looks better, thinner and could make more rolls with it. :)
Anyway, I hope all of you will try out my recipe! Good Luck and Happy Baking!!
YAM SWISS ROLL
4 medium egg yolks
60g caster sugar ( separates sugar into half for egg whites )
33g oil

* Preheated oven at 180c, bake for 25 mins center oven.
