Tips from our kitchen
Keep everything cold
Cream, bowl and whisk should all be well chilled. Follow the quantities and chilling time on the pack and the filling will set evenly.
Work quickly
Once mixed, the filling starts to set. Spread it promptly on the sponge or Swiss roll, then chill everything. A cake ring helps you keep the layer neat and level.
Great combinations
A light sponge with strawberry cake filling makes a classic strawberries-and-cream cake, while a chocolate sponge with raspberry filling gives a fruity chocolate cake. For Swiss rolls, try passion fruit-peach or forest berry. Bake the base with our foolproof sponge cake recipe, and see how to make a patterned roll in make your own decorative Swiss roll. If you want a firmer coating on the outside, you will find suitable mixes under buttercream & cream mixes.
