‎What is the origin of a Chocolate Roulade?

The origins of the term are unclear; in spite of the name “Swiss roll“, the cake is believed to have originated elsewhere in Central Europe, possibly Austria. It appears to have been invented in the nineteenth century, along with Battenberg cake, doughnuts, and Victoria sponge.

Why does my chocolate roulade crack?


If you underbake a roulade, it will be too sticky and moist to roll and will simply fall apart. If you overbake a roulade, it will be hard and will crack when you attempt to roll it. … When the roulade comes out of the oven, sift powdered sugar or cocoa powder over it immediately
