In reply to Alex. Hi Alex. Thank you for sharing your experience with the recipe. I'm sorry to hear it didn't work out as expected. I appreciate your detailed feedback. Could you confirm if you used cake flour as suggested? Both cake flour and accurate measurement with the flour is crucial with this cake. I'll review the recipe, and if you have any specific insights from your previous successful attempt, I'd love to hear. Your input is valuable, and I'm here to help with any questions or concerns.

This recipe does not work. The pre-meringue batter is super thick and the only way to incorporate the meringue is to work it too hard rather than folding. Even so, there are massive lumps of batter left. It crackedeverywhere upon the unroll and is much too dense to be a sponge.

I compared this recipe to a previous log that I had made (same size) that worked and this one requires three times MORE flour than the other recipe.

I have tried other roll cake recipes in the past and I was not happy with the results. I love lemon so I decided to give this recipe a try. It was AMAZING!!! I didn’t frost the outside, just the inside but it still turned out so good. I will be making 2 of these for Easter.
