It smelled like scrambled eggs while baking. Next time I will reduce the eggs by 2 and put in more vanilla. Also, I would not mix the berries into the whipped cream, but instead sprinkle them onto the cream just before rolling it up. I think they got too bruised while mixing them in and gave up too much juice which made the cream softer. It was beautiful and impressive looking. I really didn't like the egg smell.

I made the sponge cake as written, it behaved beautifully. I took liberty with the frost/filling recipe. I needed it to stand up to being made the day ahead, I was afraid the whipped cream alone would not hold up. I mixed 8 ounces of cream cheese with 1/4 cup of sugar until light and fluffy. I made the filling recommend here and incorporated the cream cheese mix. I then split that in half , mixing in 1 cup of pureed berries for the filling. This worked really well. Filled w/ more sliced berries.

excellent

excellent!

If your jelly roll is sticking to the towel, USE MORE CONFECTIONERS SUGAR. Nobody wants to eat raw flour in or on their jellyroll!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I added a 3 oz package of strawberry gelatin to the whipping cream mixture. It added color and sweetness to this delicious twist on traditional strawberry shortcake. The cake was a little bit sticky, so i would also recommend using flour instead of sugar. Great recipe!

I am a beginner, and yet this torte turned out great. Dusting it with a confectioner's sugar has made it wet and sticky on the outside. If you live in a humid country like me, try to sieve some flour over the cake skin instead. Good luck!

i used to make this torte years ago but with a mix of fruits and nuts you should try it. its good!!!

I made this torte for the first time today. Very light and tasty. I have one suggestion though. If your strawberries aren't very sweet, I recommend adding an additional 2 or 3 Tablespoons of powdered sugar to the whipping cream

HERE'S AN IDEA: MAKE THIS FOR 4TH OF JULY AND SERVE IT ON A BLUE PLATTER.
