Sponge Cake Roll is one of the recipes that got lost during my blog move. An old picture, but still a wonderful treat that I would like to share with you. To me a sponge cake roll tastes best with fresh fruits, especially strawberries. I know that the roll in the picture won’t win a prize for its appearance, but my family gave it big thumbs up for its fresh and fruity taste.
This cake is a wonderful summer dessert that goes well with any fruit you prefer. I would also recommend trying it with raspberries.

Ingredients
- for the sponge cake:
- 5 eggs
- 130 g sugar
- 140 g flour
- extra sugar
- for the filling:
- 500 g strawberries, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 250 g low fat Quark
- 100 g sugar
- 200 g heavy whipping cream
- 1 package Whip it
- powder sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat Convection oven to 350 F.
- Line rimmed baking sheet with Parchment Paper. Set aside.
- Separate the eggs; with a mixer beat the whites and sugar until stiff peaks form. Whisk the egg yolks together with a fork and beat in with the egg white mixture. Sift the flour into the mixture with a spatula.
- Transfer the mixture evenly onto the baking sheet. Bake for 10- 15 min. or until the cake is baked but not browned.
- While the cake is baking spread a damp kitchen towel on your work surface. Sprinkle a thin layer of sugar on the kitchen towel. Turn the hot cake out onto kitchen towel, pull of the parchment paper and roll it up immediately; start with the long side. Let it cool rolled up.
- Puree 60 g of your strawberries and mix with the sugar and Quark. Beat cream and Whip it until stiff peaks form. Mix together with the Quark mixture and add the chopped strawberries.
- Unroll the cooled sponge cake and spread with the filling evenly. Roll the filled cake up again and let rest for 2 to 4 hours. Dust with powder sugar before serving.

In response to Sarah @ Mum in the bloom Quark is similar to friendship fresh cheese, just any supermarket in the dairy department. I use it all the time.

Beautiful Summer dessert Kirsten. My friend Kathy makes roll cakes and I’ve wanted to make one for a long time. I’m such a fraidy cat. 🙂
Okay, this is freaky! I baked a strawberry dessert yesterday too–are you my twin?? I love cake rolls and this one, filled with luscious strawberries, is at the top of my list to do for a summer get-together, XOXO
That looks so beautiful. So creamy and light. I do love a rolled sponge. Very summery too. Now I’m hungry and it’s 8am here!!
The filling in this looks amazing and of course strawberry and cream cheese are a winning combination any day
Mmmmmhhhhhh, Biscuitrolle! I haven't made one of those in forever and love how quick and easy they are made. I will have to make mental note to make one real soon!
What a treat this must've been and I think it looks great. Question – what's Quark?
Looks pretty wonderful to me! Love the colour of the colour of the filling too – so girly ;0)
