Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 thin sponge cake sheet (approx. 1/4 inch thick)
- 1 cup heavy cream or whipping cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 oz cream cheese or mascarpone (optional, for richness)
- 1 tablespoon gelatin (optional, for stability)
- 2 ripe mangoes, sliced or cubed
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- Bake a thin sponge cake layer and let it cool completely on parchment paper.
- Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
- Optional: Beat in softened cream cheese or mascarpone until smooth. If using gelatin, dissolve it and fold in at this step.
- Spread the cream mixture evenly over the cooled sponge cake.
- Arrange mango slices in a line across the cream layer.
- Using parchment paper, gently roll the cake from one end to the other to form a log.
- Wrap tightly and refrigerate for at least 3 hours to set the shape.
- Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with extra mango before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Roll the sponge cake while it’s still slightly warm to prevent cracking, then unroll and fill.
- Use ripe but firm mangoes for best texture and ease of slicing.
- For added flavor, mix in lime zest or mango puree with the cream.
- Serve chilled for best taste and texture.
- Can be made a day in advance for convenience.
