Hi i want to know if i should mix some baking powder to flour before incorporating into the egg mixture.

[ChefDePatisserie]

@costam037 No, you don't need to add any baking powder.

what flour did you used? cake flour or self raising?

[ChefDePatisserie]

@yoshiki99 It's normal all purpose flour.

1 last question. you listed EGG 200g, is that egg whites? And if so can white subsitute be used? Thank you and have a good X-MAS

[ChefDePatisserie]

@Reddsmorris1 "Egg" always means whole egg (i.e. egg white + egg yolk). If you have problems measuring the egg, go to keikos-cakeDOTcom (replace DOT with .) and at the top of the page click on Lessons > Measuring ingredients. There's a short video that shows how to measure eggs correctly. ;)

Let me guess- someone stole your swiss roll.

@ChefDePatisserie Thamk you. Great work. :)

@Reddsmorris1 its possible that your sponge wasnt done right. if you didnt beat the eggs to the consistency that was shown in the video, then the sponge is not soft enough and will break due to lack of elasticity.

[ChefDePatisserie]

@Reddsmorris1 Always let the sponge cool down before filling with cream. Otherwise the cream will melt and make the sponge soggy. The sponge is so soft and fluffy that it should not crack, no matter if it's warm or cold. :)
