Rainbow Cake is a multicoloured and vibrant variation of the irresistible Swiss roll or Swiss log. This dessert has many variations, but the basic recipe remains the same – a soft sponge cake filled with whipped cream, jelly/jam, or cream.

Here chef Tejasvi makes sponge cake batter and adds different colours to different portions of the batter. She then bakes these multicoloured cakes and fills them with strawberry jam and cream cheese frosting.

The perfect swirls of cake, the tangy strawberry jam and cream cheese filling make this Rainbow Cake a guilty pleasure.
