Ingredients

Cake:
🍚 2 cups granulated sugar
🥣 1.5 cups flour
🥄 1 tsp baking powder
🥄 1 tsp baking soda
🧂 1/2 tsp salt
🥚 6 eggs
🍓 1 cup strawberry puree
🍦 1 tsp vanilla extract

Icing:
🧀 1/2 bar cream cheese
🍂 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Filling:
🍓 1 cup chopped fresh strawberries
🍓 1 cup strawberry glaze

Instructions

1- Prepare the Strawberry Puree:

Place about a half pound of fresh strawberries into a food processor and blend until smooth to form a puree.
Strain the puree through a fine strainer or cheesecloth to remove excess water. Reserve the thick puree for the cake batter.

2- Make the Cake Batter:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixer, combine 2 cups of granulated sugar, 1.5 cups of flour, 1 tsp of baking powder, 1 tsp of baking soda, and 1/2 tsp of salt. Mix well.
Add 6 eggs, 1 cup of the reserved strawberry puree, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until smooth and lump-free.
If you wish to do decorative drawings on the cake, separate a portion of the batter, add a bit more flour to thicken it, and pipe your designs onto parchment paper placed within a half-sheet-sized baking pan.
Bake the decorative layer for a few minutes just until set, then cool.

3- Bake the Cake:

Pour the remaining batter over the decorated or plain parchment paper layer.
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool completely. Trim the top if necessary to achieve an even surface.

4- Prepare the Icing:

Mix half a bar of room temperature cream cheese with 1/2 cup of powdered sugar until smooth to make the icing.

5- Prepare the Filling:

Combine 1 cup of chopped fresh strawberries with 1 cup of strawberry glaze.

6- Assemble the Roll:

Unroll the cooled cake over a fresh sheet of parchment paper. Trim the edges lengthwise for a neat finish.
Spread the cream cheese icing evenly over the cake, leaving about 3 fingers' width of space on the side you will start rolling from.
Spread the strawberry filling over the icing, still leaving space toward the end.
Carefully roll the cake as tightly as possible. Wrap the roll in parchment paper to secure it and place it in the fridge for at least two hours.
When ready, unroll and trim both ends of the cake roll for a clean presentation.
