This recipe is from my friend Wen, taught by her on one of Milwaukee Woman's Club's cooking classes a year ago. I just got a chance to make this cake roll recently, shared this with my NC friends, they all like it so much! It is relatively easy to make. Holiday season is coming soon, and it is time to make good deserts.

8. Take the original paper off, turn the cake upside down again, spread the strawberry jelly evenly on the cake.
