Why This Dessert Is Worth the Effort
A banana-filled, chocolate-covered roulade is not a casual dessert. It asks for your attention, your patience, your care. But it gives back tenfold.
It’s the kind of cake that makes people pause mid-bite. The kind that turns a simple dinner into an occasion. The kind that reminds you why baking—when done slowly, thoughtfully—can feel like both art and comfort.
And once you’ve mastered it, you’ll realize something important:
The roulade isn’t fragile.
