Tips and Variations

- To make a chocolate Swiss roll, replace 25g of the self-raising flour with 25g of cocoa powder. - If you don't have a Swiss roll tin, you can use a shallow baking tray instead. - Make sure to roll the sponge while it's still warm, as it will be easier to roll without cracking. - You can use any flavour of jam for the filling, such as raspberry, blackcurrant, or apricot. - For a festive twist, add some chopped nuts or dried fruit to the cream filling. - Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream for extra indulgence.
