Critical Success Points

  • Separate yolks from whites without contamination.
  • Whip the whites to stiff peaks with the sugar.
  • Do not overbake the sponge (5 min at 210 °C).
  • Melt the gelatin without boiling.
  • Achieve a firm whipped cream before adding the gelatin.
  • Roll the sponge without cracking it.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle raw eggs with clean hands to avoid salmonella risk.
  • Be careful with hot surfaces of the oven and water bath.
  • Do not let the gelatin boil, it will lose its gelling power.
