Method

  1. 1

    Start preparing the Swiss roll by whipping the eggs and sugar into a thick, pale foam. Combine the dry ingredients. Add them into the foam through a sieve, stirring gently.

    Spread the batter onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 200 degrees for about 10 min.

  3. 3

    Invert the cake base onto a piece of parchment paper sprinkled with sugar. Peel off the baking paper. Place the paper back on top of the base and let it cool covered.

  4. 4

    Whip the cream into a foam. Mix the quark and sugars into the whipped cream.

  5. 5

    Spread the jam first onto the cooled Swiss roll base, and then the cream-quark mixture on top. Roll up gently using the parchment paper.
