Notes

Make sure to prepare your jelly roll pan properly with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Keep an eye on the cake while it bakes, as ovens can vary in temperature. When rolling the cake, do it gently to avoid cracking. Use a clean kitchen towel for easier rolling. Use heavy cream with your ganache for a glossy finish that adds richness.
