My parent...Hi everyone, thanks for your comments. <br /><br />My parents recently came to stay and Mum decided that she would try to make this cake using vanilla and chocolate cakes with chocolate ganash. Hers was SOOOO much more succesful. Well, from the outside it looked hilariously bad, but cutting into it got those wonderful vertical layers. We all had a good laugh over our attempted cake fails (and delicious successes)Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10583674955056530485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-13291661203571721192013-10-22T16:01:40.295-06:002013-10-22T16:01:40.295-06:00The first one is definitely a sponge cake which lo...The first one is definitely a sponge cake which looks very pretty in pictures but I'd much rather eat the "pinstrosity".

I would have baked it in batches for thinner layers, and used a recipe that would produce a more cohesive, less crumbly, cake. <br /><br />But if it tasted good, it kind of doesn't matter.Little Black Carhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14313164876855565140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-82533588380501684032013-10-22T13:54:01.105-06:002013-10-22T13:54:01.105-06:00It still looks great and definitely two thumbs up ...It still looks great and definitely two thumbs up for your continued perserverance! I didn't even know you could roll cake without it breaking/splitting. I think you did a great job, esp. for a first try, no real instructions and based on that photo!!!JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-48649617037569758122013-10-22T12:27:49.901-06:002013-10-22T12:27:49.901-06:00LOL'ing!

I found this <a href="http://www.thesweetart.com/2011/04/vertical-swiss-roll-cake.html?m=1" rel="nofollow">vertical swiss roll</a> recipe that uses a sponge cake. It doesn't have the top and bottom layers, but I think it would work.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01018133581073350822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-56385125674238394192013-10-22T11:36:38.037-06:002013-10-22T11:36:38.037-06:00Part of the problem might have been that red velve...Part of the problem might have been that red velvet is much heavier than what the cake in the picture looks like.

So I can definitely see where she went wrong. Looks like vanilla sponge filled with jelly, whipped cream between the chocolate sponge and jelly roll, and then iced with buttercream on the outside. It's a very cool looking cake, I'd definitely try it even without instructions too haha.happinessandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08659968488232317215noreply@blogger.com
