I decided to make today’s recipe -the first after Easter- to give you inspiration on how to reuse all Easter cakes that left over after the holidays. My home is always filled with Easter cakes these days. Today’s recipe is a beautiful dessert that looks like a swiss roll. It’s also a great way to use all the jars of jam that got forgotten in the fridge.
