Suggested Wine-colored: Hot or iced tea


NOTES : When I started planning the desserts for this script, I never
imagined I'd be making a jelly scroll, but after having strawberry ice cream
served with a generous slice of jelly roll alongside at La Heladeria
Coppelia in Havana, I decided that a delicious homemade version was a mustiness.
This cake stays fresh for a few days when well covered, and it is worth any
effort it entails. It truly is a special delicacy. I used raspberry preserves
in this recipe, but strawberry preserves would be equally luscious. Work
carefully when removing the cake from the pan. A thin slice is perfect
served at teatime with a cup of your favorite brew, steamy hot or iced.
