For 8 portions

Ingredients

For the batter:

5 eggs
5 tablespoons sugar
4 tablespoons semi-coarse flour
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 packet vanilla sugar
1–2 teaspoons cocoa powder (to taste)

For the filling:

250 ml whipping cream (min. 33 %)
1 packet of whipped cream stabilizer
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
mandarins from a can or fresh fruit (strawberries, kiwi, raspberries…)

Preparation procedure

Preparing the batter: Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form. Beat the yolks with the sugar and vanilla sugar until frothy, then add the flour and gently fold into the egg whites.
Shaping the batter: Put half of the batter into a piping bag, pipe diagonal stripes onto the baking paper. Stir cocoa into the remaining batter and use it to fill the gaps between the stripes.
Baking: Bake in an oven preheated to 180 °C for about 10 minutes. After baking, roll the cake together with the paper into a towel and let cool.
Filling: Whip the cream with the stabilizer and powdered sugar into stiff whipped cream. Add pieces of mandarins or other fruit.
Assembling the roulade: Unroll the cooled sponge, spread it with the whipped cream and fruit, and carefully roll it back up.
Chilling and serving: Place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. Before serving, you can sprinkle with powdered sugar or garnish with fresh fruit.
