Celebrated Mommies' Day with my Mommy with a home-cook'd dinner & a homemade chestnut & buttercream swiss roll cake.
the cake is frost'd with vanilla buttercream & fill'd with SABATON chestnut cream
. i got the idea of making a vertical swiss roll cake from Okashi by Keiko Ishida
. i had want'd this book for the longest time after read'n about it from many bloggers' posts, but it took a while for amazon to stock up & when they did, i was ecstatic! it definitely didn't disappoint =D i follow'd the souffle swiss roll cake recipe from this book, the roll was definitely more moist & more foregiving to roll'n than my previous attempts @ roll'n a genoise or other "roll cake" recipes which broke apart as i roll'd. can't wait to try other recipes.

three of us shared the mini cake & still have 1/4 leftover due to the BIG dinner =D
