Strawberry Roll with Rose Petal Jam for Valentine’s Day 草莓玫瑰花瓣果酱蛋糕券
Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day and is also ‘yuan xiao’ (元宵) meaning the 15th night the end of the Chinese New Year. It is also known by many as Chinese Valentine’s Day. So how do you celebrate this special day with your loved ones? For this year, I made a Strawberry roll with rose petal jam. The rose petal jam in the cake gave a sweet floral rose fragrance which combines well with fresh strawberries. I also added some heart shape chocolate at the sides of the cake. The souffle sponge cake recipe was adapted from my favourite cookbook Okashi, Sweet Treat Made with Love. This recipe is very easy to follow and it takes about an hour to make this cake including the decoration. A perfect tea time treat for someone special. Happy Valentine’s Day!

Serves: 1 cake roll
Ingredients
- 1 Whole egg + 3 egg yolks
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 35g Butter
- 60g Plain flour, sifted
- 80g Fresh milk
- 3 Egg whites
- 75g Caster sugar
Filling - 150g Fresh topping cream
- Adequate Rose Petal Jam
- Snow powder (or icing sugar) for dusting and some dried rose buds for decoration
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. Line a 28 x 28cm (11 inch) square pan with non grease baking paper.
- Combine egg, egg yolks and vanilla extract in a small bowl and beat lightly. Set aside.
- Place butter in a small saucepan, and heat gently until melted. Add flour to melted butter and cook through. Then add egg mixture a little at a time. With a spatula, mix into a smooth batter. Add milk and mix to incorporate. Strain batter to a large bowl and set aside.
- To make meringue: Place egg whites in a clean bowl and beat until foamy. Add half the sugar and continue beating for a few minutes, then add remaining sugar and beat until egg whites are glossy peak form.
- Add one-third of meringue to batter and fold in lightly, then add remaining meringue and fold through until just incorporated. Pour batter into prepared cake pan and spread evenly with a scraper or palette knife.
- Bake for 20 minutes. When the cake is done, remove from pan and leave to cool down completely. Turn cooled sponge cake onto a parchment paper.
- Whip fresh topping cream to stiff peak form. Spread whipped cream (not too thick) in an even layer over the entire sponge.
- Spoon some rose petal jam and spread thinly and evenly over whipped cream then spread another thin layer of fresh cream on top. Place 6-7 pieces of whole strawberries on the sponge.
- Gently roll up sponge from the edge and refrigerate the cake roll for few hours until firm. Trim the sides of the cake roll and decorate it as desired.

This is sooooo gorgeous Ann . .just loved the way u present it….I wish I can make it some day ..excellent!!
This is so beautiful and perfect for V-Day! Can rose petal jam be substituted with rose essence?
Thank you 🙂
Using rose essence will only get an artificial taste. You can also use the rose petal jam for spreading on bread.
Ann, I am first to comment!!! This is a fantastic cake! Its so beautiful!!! Will try this out one day. By the way, where to buy the rose petal jam? Happy Valentine's Day!
Hi Ai Li, yes you're the first ~ Happy Valentine's Day!
The rose petal jam was given to me by a friend and she bought it at Shermay Cooking school at Holland Village.
