Whether you’re heading to a party, hosting a gathering, or just want to bake something super fun at home, this Pride-themed rainbow Swiss roll cake has you covered! With its light and soft sponge rolled around a fluffy layer of whipped cream, it’s more than a dessert, it’s a celebration on a plate.

directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 17 x 11-inch baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
To the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or a large bowl and hand mixer, combine the egg yolks and sugar and beat on medium speed until pale and fluffy.
Add the milk, vegetable oil, vinegar, vanilla and salt. Mix until combined. Sift in the flour and baking powder and mix on low until just combined. If using a stand mixer, transfer the mixture to a large bowl, clean the stand mixer bowl and dry.
Add the egg whites to the stand mixer bowl with the whisk attachment or to a medium-sized bowl and whip on high speed until stiff peaks form.

Add 1-3 drops of food colouring to each separate bowl and mix till the colour is even. Fill six piping bags or sandwich bags with each individual colour.
Cut the ends off the bags and pipe the colours diagonally across the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the cake is set and springs back when touched.
Dust a clean kitchen towel with powdered sugar and invert the warm cake onto the clean kitchen towel. Remove the parchment paper and gently roll the cake on the short side along with the kitchen towel. Let the cake cool down completely in this rolled shape.
While the cake cools, make the whipped cream filling by adding the heavy cream, skim milk powder, and powdered sugar to the bowl of the stand mixer with the whisk attachment or to a large bowl and hand mixer. Whip on high speed until stiff peaks form.
Carefully unroll the cake and spread the whipped cream mixture onto the cake and re-roll the cake with the filling.
