Hello my Foodie Friends!
August can be a very warm month and it becomes a quest to stay cool. We tend to eat lighter and refreshing foods during this time of year. One of my favorite summer combos is strawberries and cream. Our children love waffles with strawberries and whipped cream. When they were younger they probably could have eaten it every single day and not get sick of it. This combo is also great on or in cake such as a gorgeous Swiss roll. This is a perfectly refreshing summer dessert that is loved by all! Cake rolls look really fancy as well as complicated but they are actually quite easy to make. One essential item you need to make a cake roll is a jelly roll pan. A jelly roll pan (typically 10½ by 15½ inches) is simply a smaller version of a rimmed baking sheet (about 12 by 18 inches). When it comes to equipping your kitchen, baking sheets are more versatile. You can use one to roast a large batch of vegetables, bake a dozen or more cookies, or even make a large sheet cake. A jelly-roll pan has 1-inch-high sides and is perfect for making cake rolls; it can stand in for a cookie sheet in a pinch.
Love is all around especially when we bring and serve fantastic desserts. We have a ton of bakeware to assist with your fun summer culinary desserts. Stop by Compliments to the Chef located at 33 Railroad place for your “cool dessert” culinary needs. Remember my Foodie Friends; “Life Happens in the Kitchen.”
Take Care,
John & Paula
