Summer Jelly Roll
Summer is already half over! We have been fishing, camping and exploring for the last few weeks so I haven't had time to make any posts...too busy making memories;) #sorrynotsorry. I hope you are all having a wonderful summer as well. A few weeks ago for a summer BBQ I made this jelly roll. It's the perfect summer dessert. You can add any type of seasonal berry or fruit and it always tastes amazing. When I made it we had a fresh pick of raspberries from my mother in law's small orchard. It went really well with those and I loved the bright colour of the fruit against the light coloured cake.
This cake is pretty quick to make but does need to cool before you can put the whip cream on. Keep the dessert chilled until ready to serve. Enjoy and Happy August!
