I like how you don’t edit your mistakes. You’re so real and genuine. Your videos are so great to watch!

I love a Swiss Roll! My mom used to add leftover coffee to make her chocolate icing for our cakes. Always liked that.

[@PreppyKitchen]

My mom too!!! We add espresso powder to the whipped cream and I love it!!!

[@karenshurley4793]

[@jaspermartin7444]

My mom never made swiss roll, reading your comment makes me feel a bit cheated lol. Otoh, my mom had her hands full trying to grow enough food to feed 9, so only love and respect for her. And now I can make it myself!

This is my favourite video so far, the way John is honest is the thing I love the most about his videos and recipes. Preppy Kitchen All The Way!!!

[@regular-joe]

Thank you for being so descriptive and detailed about how to fold in the egg whites. Many recipes just say, "mix gently" or "fold in as usual" - your way is super helpful.

[@lizaguzman9110]

You should dust the cake with the cocoa powder then put the towel over it, after put a same size pan on top of the towel and flip the cake. It will make it easier to flip and you won’t get cocoa powder all over your counter/table. Just a helpful tip 😊

[@TheMcpherson4]

I LITERALLY, laughed out loud when dropped the cake!!!! I love the “realness”! Thanks, John!

[@janelcloutier9543]

I screamed 😆

The minute he said, “with confidence and joy in your heart” and then flipped the cake pan, I hit that subscribe button. 😂

[@erikam8621]

John, my husband and I made this together yesterday for my birthday! We had the best time making it, and our guests loved it! Everything about this cake is fantastic, and my kids have already requested it for their upcoming birthdays! Thank you for sharing this - your step-by-step instructions made it easy to follow and gave us the confidence to attempt something we perceived as complicated but was in fact very doable!

[@shirleylewis3490]

Oh my goodness you honestly just made my day John. I love how real your videos are - cake drop ‘n all! ❤

[@singe0diabolique]

Thanks for the heart attack, John! 🤣 I literally screamed when that cake hit the counter!

[@kathg9415]

Not only do I learn baking techniques, but you are so fun to watch! So educational! So entertaining!

[@solarflare2137]

I made this for a dinner party and it was a huge hit! Extremely airy and smooth. I’ve never made a roll before and it came out perfect!

[@nikkihayes9236]

When you dropped the rolled-up cake.... We can ALL relate!!💯😂😂💖

[@charlottependerstaph6683]

I love it! The giggles when the cake goes flying. So real! Never change. The cake looks amazing! Yum!

[@KB-hs7vh]

I love how you explain why you do certain things, techniques, etc. Thank you for sharing this amazing recipe! 🤩

[@mkmom8473]

I laughed when you dropped the cake. You are so real. At 62 I have definitely had my share of incidents in the kitchen. Just discovered you and love your videos. I made the tortellini soup last night (chicken instead of sausage) and I had your crumble cake with my coffee this morning. Both the soup and cake are delicious! I also ordered your cookbook.

[@miryanacolton5674]

My Mum used to make these Swiss rolls too which I loved the most - so many fond childhood memories YUM 😋 Going to have to try this one.

[@JustAnotherBuckyLover]

I freaking love swiss roll more than almost any other cake. I've never met a buttercream or frosting that comes even close to the deliciousness of whipped cream between fluffy, tender, superlight sponge. So delicious!

[@mariamtee]

My mother used to bake from old cookbooks she got on a trip to England in the early 80s and most of them used whipped cream with chocolate brownies and cakes and that's how I like it. I think chocolate icing on chocolate cake is an American trend that has now gone global.

[@JustAnotherBuckyLover]

@@mariamtee I was born in the late 70s so the time frame matches up! My mum definitely used buttercream (just the basic, standard stuff, no meringue-based ones etc) but it was never my favourite. However, if you want a cool kids' cake, you have to go with something other than whipped cream. I remember several Barbie dolls wrapped in clingfilm to act as the top half of a "princess" where the cake was the skirt. LOL

[@aristasenglish6533]

Thank you so much John. your recipes are always great! I hope you always shine❤🌟⭐

[@sheilanaduriak1269]

Thank you for making this video. I have always wanted to tackle a roll cake but was intimidated to do so. However, after seeing how easy it is to make a roll cake, I am so going to try this tomorrow. Thanks John.😀

[@paulainsc8212]

Love love love that you include mistakes because not only does it make me chuckle, it is something I would do! Thank you for showing us how to fix mishaps!

[@EM-mw2qr]

My late brother-in-law loved Swiss Rolls. I wish I could have made this cake for him before he passed away.

[@johannagillenwater616]

By far…. It is the best video you posted to date!!!!! It is excellent for many different reasons. You educate us in more ways than you probably intended.

[@vickieboley9452]

You definitely need your own cooking show on television! You are up there with the very best of the best! Great try to save on that cake fumble ! I can’t wait to make this recipe!

[@lindacope7344]

I'm ambivalent about the TV show thing. I think that with a show, comes the people who would want to supervise and limit. I like that your presentations are your ideas and done in your way. I would assume you have more freedom as to planning, scheduling etc. It seems as if you have the perfect situation for you and your family. I think you have developed a closeness with us that we wouldn't have with someone on Food Network for example.

[@pwp8737]

Tv is so 20th century; there are more potential viewers on youtube, not to mention more control over the content

[@EdolasMystogan]

TV format is really bad. Its heavily edited, cut down, and watered down

[@danarusticcoophomestead7813]

THANKYOU for keeping everything RAW in your videos and NOT editing them to make everything look perfect, clean and organized, because in all reality every one of us watching these videos, is not any of that in our kitchens or restaurants. We drop things, break things, burn things and always always have more powdered sugar outside of our mixers instead of the inside, more than we care to admit 😂 I personally watch your videos and purchased your amazing book, because you are genuine and true to yourself and that relates to many of us.... That is the type of person I want to support....So THANKYOU John for keeping it all REAL xx

Love your videos. I made cakes for 50 years. I add about 1/2 cup meringue powder to my buttercream icing. Gives it a marvelous tang that tones down/enhances the sweetness. Marvelous flavor!!

Omg John! When I saw that pan going I inhaled deeply. I almost lost my breath. And…..John with the save!🎉🎉🎉🎉 Why is it that EVERY time I watch one of your videos I almost drown in saliva?🤣😂 That ganache waterfall….I just heard the heavens open up and sing….🎤🎼🎵🎶 ((Ahhhhhhhhhh)).

[@debbieanne860]

This looks absolutely scrumptious and I can’t wait to try it! Thank you for sharing it and for letting us see your boo-boo! Happens to all of us. I make a German Chocolate roll up cake and the one thing I do differently than you is that I do not powder my towel. As soon as the cake comes out of the oven, I powder the cake, place the towel over it, (confidently) flip it onto my working space and proceed to roll it like you do. For me, it seems to create less of a dusting mess and in the end, it comes out the same!

[@chreechree6900]

Excellent tip. I'm planning to try this cake tomorrow and, while I like being able to prep the towel beforehand, I think for the sake of my kitchen, I'd rather try to avoid the cocoa plume that John created. Thanks!

This tip saved me from a huge mess thank you
