Fluffiest Roll Cake | Dojima Roll | Japanese Roll Cake

[@PastryLivingwithAya]

Hello guys! Note: It takes about 15-25 minutes in room temperature for the cake to cool down completely. I usually make syrup and cream as it cools and roll it up right after so that the cake does not get dried up. (or you can wrap/cover a sponge if you can not frost right after) When you want to store, wrap tightly and the cake stays moist and fluffy. I recommend you to finish it up within 4-5 days or within 48 hours for the best taste! When you use a bigger sheet with one batch of the recipe, it usually get baked faster, so start checking earlier than 13 minutes. You can make a half or double batches as you like! The same technique applies.

Hi dear do I use the oven up and down or only down?

[@czarinadytianquin6139]

I made this last week and followed each step. It turned out really great. How I wish that comment section in yt could post photos so I could show the cake which I have made. It was so soft and fluffy. All the members of the family really loved it and they still ask for more. 😅

[@imakat1027]

I really appreciate you provide the measurements both in metric and imperial. I juggle recipes written in English and Japanese as I play around to make my own dairy free recipes (due to dairy allergy), so your recipes are so helpful. Besides that, I just enjoy watching you bake all these yummy things! Kinda mesmerizing

[@PastryLivingwithAya]

I’m glad it’s been helpful for you! That was an issue for me too when I moved here. Cups, ounce and gram..😅 Thank you!❤️🙏🏻

I made this cake but not the roll. I used this cake to make strawberry mini cakes. It was very fluffy and delivered. Love it.

[@tennentou]

This is a legit recipe - tried it last night and it works. I've been looking for a Japanese cake roll recipe where you mix the flour with the combined whipped eggs instead of mixing it with the yolks first like most recipes say. I've read that doing it this way yields better results. I found this cake to be notably softer than the ones I made before by mixing flour with yolks. Also, I've never seen that wire whisk mixing technique before and picked it up too. And the cake soak step is definitely a must for this type of cake in my opinion, so seeing it in the recipe made me smile. More people need to get into cake soaks, it's not just something you do to rescue an overbaked cake. 5/5 recipe overall, clear instructions with all the important steps like the texture of the batter visible. Thank you, Aya!

Hi I’m gonna be making this for my husband’s birthday. Can I use plain flour instead of cake flour?

Looks amazing. Do I need to add baking powder?

[@paulietchka]

made this for my friend’s birthday today and it was the softest, fluffiest roll ever, so delicious. I struggled a bit with the rolling (specially the finishing “seal”, wasn’t sure how to close it up neatly). another issue was that the parchment paper seemed to “scrunch up” in some spots, so the surface didn’t have that slick finish all around. do you have any tips on how to fix these for next time? overall, another incredible recipe! thank you for being so thoughtful with the details (close-ups on the texture of the batter, meringue, the timing etc) and so generous with your knowledge 🤍

[@PastryLivingwithAya]

I'm so glad! Thank you for sharing it. About your questions: I tight it up until it doesn't look sloppy and until I see that the cream comes out a little bit from the sides (That's the sign there is no air gap inside.) You do not need to do this if it looks already tight. About parchment paper, try not to squish it too much when you are rolling the cake so that it doesn't get too wrinkly. Also, it might get much better with thicker parchment paper. I hope that helps a bit!!

I love this. I made mine with pistaschio cream, it tasted great, and you were right about the syrup. However I think I jad 2 mistakes, I overbaked it thinking it's not brown enough and also overmixed the egg whites. Any tips on figuring out when the cake is done in the oven? I will try this again.

[@PastryLivingwithAya]

Touch the surface gently: it should bounces back very gently. You might hear the *slight* meringue sound but that is okay as long as it does not leave a dent and if It bounces back. Hope it’ll be baked good next time!

Hi Aya, Lately I am into black sesame sponge cake. Do you think I can use this recipe with ground black sesame or Earl Grey flavor? I still try to find a cream that only taste "milk" like Hokkaido milk instead of whipped cream flavor. Haha!

[@PastryLivingwithAya]

When you add pressure while it's still warm, it might get squished easily, especially for this sponge since it's very fluffy with not much body support. And try not to overmix the batter to make fluffy texture ;) Hope it'll be a success next time!!!

Hi , how come I cannot whisk the egg white to fluffy, alway separate the water n white?

[@ickesdglewman9361]

i looove ittt

[@familyjongs6874]

What’s make the difference if u add oil n milk to egg first before egg white? Also why this method of folding n not J style as u did in other. Yr student. 😘😬

[@PastryLivingwithAya]

Good questions! This time I mixed up the genoise method and chiffon cake recipe. - By adding milk and oil first, the yolk mixture gets a lot looser, so it'll be a slightly harder to mix with meringue. I also tried mixing cake flour with other liquids beforehand like chiffon cake method, and it tasted really good actually but the sponge was more springy than this method. So I decided to add flour toward the end using genoise method to create more fragile, gentle fluffiness. And about the folding, typically I use a whisk when I feel the textures of the 2 components are not quite same or similar and they might not blend quickly or lumps might not come off easily with a spatula (Or when I feel it's easier or faster to blend them with a whisk) Soo for example, if the meringue was a lot more stiff this time, I probably used a whisk so that I can for sure eliminate the lumps. I often use it for mousse because I have to hold very fluffy components (whipped cream and meringue) and loose components (puree or chocolate) and for me, it's just easier to fold with a whisk in that case. So as a chiffon cake. (Meringue + Liquid base) Ultimately, we can fold with a whisk for almost anything but I just don't do it because sometimes a spatula do a perfect job and I just don't want to create extra things to wash! lol I don't know if I could explain well but hope it cleared out your why!!!

Hi Mommy Chef, I’ve tried the recipe nice, soft and fluffy. However it’s got a very “eggy” taste due to the amount of eggs used. I know we can use vanilla essence to cover the taste but it’s still eggy. What should we do to avoid the egg smell and taste in the sponge cake?

[@PastryLivingwithAya]

That was not an issue for me, so I am not exactly sure but try baking slightly longer if you feel the smell was not pleasant. And if vanilla extract did not help, also try vanilla beans, that is more flavorful. Or any other flavors you like! You can also try with genoise cake recipe if you like less eggs. Hope that helps!

[@Rayis4444]

It will be eggy. But the next day the egg smell will reduce. Add orange or lemon zest or both with vanilla if possible.

Do the eggs need to be at room temperature? My cake came out soft but not fluffy. My eggs were cold from the refrigerator. Thx

[@PastryLivingwithAya]

The cold egg should not be a problem. If the cake did not look fluffy, try folding the meringue less next time OR make fluffier meringue. The meringue is the biggest key; Check how much I whipped it and folded it in the video, and copy exactly it. Hope it'll be a success next time!

[@mayamaya-ry3eg]

Hi! Whats the difference between this sponge base and your genoise texture wise? Can i use your genoise base instead? I always find the genoise is more fluffy/tender.. probably because the protwin in egg whites gets mixed together with the yolk hence tenderness?

[@PastryLivingwithAya]

You can use the genoise recipe too but this one contains more meringue and less cake flour. So it is a bit more elastic and suitable to vent/roll even more!
