I have to admit I'm a Bake Off fan, so when I watched the masterclass of the Black and white liquorish and blackberry swissroll, I really wanted to give it a go.
It just so happened that I had a dinner party last night so I decided it was my chance to give it a go, ( I bought a tub of icecream for back up just in case!)
The recipe for Paul's cake and method is on the following link:http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/blackcurrant_and_96079 but I did make some changes.
Do you like liquorish? I quite enjoy the deep rich strong flavour of liquorish but for a dinner party I didn't think the flavour would be to everyone's taste. Instead, I coloured my stripes pink flavoured with almond essence and the filling I changed to whipped cream and raspberries.
The result and the verdict: a delicious swissroll and looks stunning. The only part I found a bit tricky was the flipping out and rolling up of the swissroll.
Not the best pic but here's me taking a quick photo of my plate of dessert and yes, I ended up serving the icecream too.
