Hello Dear Lykkers! Do you know soft glutinous cake rolls are a delectable treat loved for their chewy texture and sweet, rich flavor.
Here’s a quick look at what makes these cake rolls so special and how to make them at home.

What Makes a Soft Glutinous Cake Roll Special?

Soft glutinous cake rolls are made with glutinous rice flour, which gives them their characteristic chewy and sticky texture. Unlike regular flour, glutinous rice flour contains no gluten, making it an excellent choice for those seeking gluten-free desserts. The cake is soft, slightly sweet, and often filled with a variety of fillings, from red bean paste to whipped cream, fruit, or matcha. Its delicate flavor and unique texture make it a popular dessert in many Asian countries, especially Japan and Taiwan.

How to Make a Soft Glutinous Cake Roll

Ingredients:
1 cup glutinous rice flour
3/4 cup milk
2 tbsp sugar
2 eggs
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Fillings: Red bean paste, whipped cream, or fruits
Instructions:
Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add in the vegetable oil and milk, mixing well. Slowly sift in the glutinous rice flour, stirring until you have a smooth batter.
Bake the Cake: Pour the batter onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes or until the cake is set and slightly golden.
Cool and Fill: Once the cake has cooled, spread your desired filling evenly over the surface. Gently roll the cake from one end to the other, using the parchment paper to help form a tight roll.
Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the roll for at least 30 minutes to set. Slice and enjoy the soft, chewy texture with a cup of tea!
