    This is a very interesting swiss roll with sweet potato filling.  Your swiss roll is well rolled up - must be very nice too.

    Sandy,
    I thought it is supposed to be easier to roll if your cake is smaller?

    Very interesting combination I have to say. Although both chocolate and sweet potatoes are my favorite, I've yet combined the two together. ....considering I have that book too, heehee.
