Preheat & Prepare
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.

Roll the Cake

Unroll & Assemble

Chill & Serve

FAQs: Strawberry Tiramisu Roll
Can I make this Strawberry Tiramisu Roll ahead of time?
Yes! You can make it a day in advance and refrigerate it overnight. This helps the flavors meld beautifully and makes slicing easier.
Can I use cream cheese instead of mascarpone?
You can substitute cream cheese for mascarpone, but it will be tangier and slightly thicker. Soften it first and mix well for a smoother texture.
What if I don’t have a jelly roll pan?
You can use a standard 9×13 baking sheet, but reduce the batter quantity slightly or expect a thinner roll. Make sure to line with parchment paper!
Can I skip the coffee?
Absolutely. The coffee is optional and can be left out for a more fruit-forward flavor, especially if making it kid-friendly.
How do I keep the cake from cracking?
Roll the cake while it’s still warm using a powdered-sugar-dusted towel. This helps it “remember” the shape and prevents cracks when filled.
