In reply to Joanne. I've never had success with rolling cooled cakes. If I let them cool, they crack 100%. Always roll when warm.

Cake rolls like this should always be completely cooled before rolling. Warm cakes are more likely to crack.

In reply to Patty B.. It really depends on how long your cookie sheet it, But the template doesn't need to cover the entire pan because the middle part of the cake (the side with no images) will be rolled up inside of the cake.

Hi.I want to make this and I was wondering if the cake batter fills a cookie sheet.It dosen’t look like the template is big enough.

In reply to Dina. you can tell by looking at it. It's a super thin cake so you'll be able to tell. It'll look fluffy and sponge like. Also I cover almost all of the 13 x 9 pan with the cake batter. you need the cake to be thin so you can roll it.

This is so adorable! How do you know when the cake is done when you take it out of the oven? If I use a toothpick what should I look for?

Also on the 13 x 9 pan, do you cover the whole thing?

Thank you!

In reply to Ashley.

Hi Ashley,
You use both egg white and egg yolks in the cake just in different steps. I’m not exactly sure which part you’re talking about but I read back through it and maybe the adding the whipped egg white to the yolks threw you off? You have to whip the egg whites with sugar and then you add those same egg whites to the whisked yolks 🙂

you say to add in the egg whites twice which one do you do the egg yolks not the whites?
