I'll call it Jelly Tip Roll.......

              One of my sources of recipes has been the weekend baking classes I've attended since I was a teenager.... that's 30 years ago!!! These classes are carried out by enterprising ladies who normally also take orders for their baked products. One of my favourite 'teachers' is Kak Aini Salim, who is well-known in Singapore, Brunei & Malaysia.


           Last weekend, I made Jelly Tip Roll which I learnt to make during one of the classes conducted by Kak Aini. And I've chosen to bake a roll cake because I'm submitting this post to Aspiring Bakers #9 - Swiss Rolling Good Times  hosted by Obsessedly Involved With Food.

       
           Actually, Jelly Tip Roll is not the original name of the cake. But I've decided to change it so that it's self-explanatory. Everything else is pretty much the same. I've made this cake  a few times, but this  time, I went overboard with the  cream when rolling it. That made the roll too sweet. So next time, I'll go easy with the cream.
