HOKKAIDO MILK CAKE ROLL | How to make Hokkaido Milk Cream Cake (EP276)

Hokkaido Milk Cream Cake Roll

Today I’m going to be making, Hokkaido Milk cream cake Roll.

This is a requested video from my dearest subscribers, thank you so much.

She wants to re-create Lawson’s cake roll which I have never tried.

So I went to Lawson to get it and tried. I found it tastes really good, the texture of the cake is moist and bouncy, and chewy.

The whipped cream is so light and airy, and the aroma from the milk fat is exceptionally comfortable.

What are the ingredients?

“Ingredients: Whipped cream (vegetable oil, whole milk, etc), egg, sugar, processed-fat,

glucose, heavy cream, emulsified oil, processed-milk, flour, powdered milk, salt,

starch, gelatin, Kanten/ processed-starch, emulsifier, levener, phosphat, cellulose,

Thickening polysaccharide, flavoring, whey salt"

Ummmm…

There are a lot of ingredients that we can’t access.

Even if I can access to these product, I don’t want these in my cake.

Here, I introduced my recipe that I used to make at my pastry shop without using any these product.

When I run a pastry shop, I had only used natural ingredients.

I tried my best to re-create the Lawson’s cake with natural ingredients at home. The procedure is not the same as ordinary cake roll, but I am sure this is a hit!

  When all the sugar is dissolved, turn the speed to high and whisk until the stiff peaks form.
• Add 1/3 of the meringue to the egg mixture.

  Use a whisk; tap the meringue to combine with the egg mixture.

  ※What I am doing is mixing the egg mixture with the meringue without deflating.
• Then add in the next one-third of the meringue, and repeat the process.

  When your cake batter is mixed, about 80% switch to the spatula and Scoop the batter up to the center to ensure no meringue remains.

  Move around the cake butter to fill all the corners like this.

  Increase the speed to medium until soft peaks form.

Assemble

• Flip the cake sheet upside down and peel off the paper.

  Place a new paper on it and flip it over.

  The bottom of the cake sheet comes the outside.
• Drop the whipped cream at an interval so that you can evenly spread the cream.

  Save a little bit a month about 2 to 3 tablespoons of whipped cream for later use.

  Spread the whipped cream all over the surface. The end will be thinner than the center of the cake.
• Take the parchment paper as a guide and start rolling up.

  Slowly roll it up nice and tight.
• Open the parchment paper and filled up both ends with whipped cream.

  Place the cake on the center of the paper and tuck the paper with the ruler.
