I usually use a clean T Towel, Just rest your cake on it spread your butter cream on the sponge and start rolling from the end using the T towel to keep it firm. hope this helps.0

When cooked turn it out on to a clean tea towel (it will be upside down) and roll it up without any buttercream in while still hot. If you keep the tea towel inside the roll - like a filling if you see what I mean - then it will not stick to itself.
You then need to let it get cold or the buttercream will melt.
When cold unroll carefully and spread the buttercream on - don't worry if it cracks a bit when you roll it back up.0 -

Stopped many, many years ago.
But can still roll a giant swiss roll if the need arises. I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll
