I want to make cake roll, but I am not sure what to put for the filling, any filling ideas?
Thank You

Eric.
I like chocolate cake with either vanilla ice cream or coffee ice cream as a filling. I love frozen chocolate cake roll with ice cream in the swirls.
What is the secret in making it so that the cake will roll? Remember: I'm not a baker.
After cake is baked while warm you put a tea towel on top and roll. When cake is cool you gently unroll, remove towel spread with filling (softened ice cream if you are using it) then reroll 9(without the towel LOL) and allow to chill to firm up (if you use ice cream place in freezer till ice cream freezes again).What is the secret in making it so that the cake will roll?

I've used a tea towel to do this. Does that make me older than Claire?I'm not a baker, either. But always took home ec in school for an "easy A". You grease the pan very well, then put down a piece of wax paper (I think parchment is more trendy). Then, you grease the paper. You pour the batter on, then bake. While still warm, you put another greased piece of wax paper on top and very gently roll. When cool, you un-roll (don't force it, leave the curl in), remove the layers of paper, spread with filling, then re-roll. re-wrap in new wax paper and a towel. when cool, unwrap and, if desired, frost (like for a bouche de noel).
I'm actually curious if any bakers out there think this is right, since the last time I did it was in 10th grade home ec class.

No, it means your Home Ec teacher had a washer on the premises.
Doing laundry was part of Home Ec...as was learning to iron properly (a skill I rarely use now!).No, it means your Home Ec teacher had a washer on the premises.
