Swiss roll

Finally decide to create my own blog. To begin......post a picture of swiss roll. Was trying to use up the strawberries in the fridge, so made this swiss roll. Still need lots of practise on the rolling part. Kenny said the texture is very soft compare to the previous ones I made, I know he like it because he ate half of it.
