Swiss Roll Cake & Scandinavian Sandwich Cake (Recipes included!)

 

Today I’ll do a bit different post and share couple yummy cakes a baked lately. They might be a bit weird for some of you but they are super delicious though. When I did Scandinavian Sandwich Cake in US people thought it’s super odd to combine sandwiches and cake but here in Finland we love it. It’s something that’s very commonly served in big event’s such as graduation party or grandma’s 70th Birthday. Swiss Roll Cake is not that popular anymore but it used to be a big thing couple years ago. It’s easy and fast to make so why not to do it instead of regular cakes? 🙂
