• 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 tbsp milk
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil

👉 Texture: soft, elastic (important for rolling)

For the Cream Filling

• 1½ cups (360 ml) heavy cream (cold)
• 3 tbsp powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Mango Filling

• 1½ cups fresh mango (diced small)

🔪 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Sponge Cake

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Line a rectangular baking tray with parchment.
3. Beat eggs + sugar until:
   • Pale
   • Thick
   • Tripled in volume

👉 This step creates the airy texture.

4. Add vanilla.
5. Gently fold in flour (do not overmix).
6. Mix milk + oil → fold in slowly.
7. Pour into tray and spread evenly.
8. Bake 10–12 minutes until lightly golden.

Step 2: Roll While Warm (Key Technique)

1. Place cake on a clean towel dusted with powdered sugar.
2. Roll gently while still warm.
3. Let cool completely in rolled shape.

👉 This prevents cracking later.

Step 3: Make the Cream Filling

1. Whip heavy cream + powdered sugar + vanilla.
2. Beat until soft peaks (not too stiff).

👉 Texture should be smooth and spreadable.

Step 4: Assemble the Roll

1. Carefully unroll cooled cake.
2. Spread whipped cream evenly.
3. Add diced mango pieces.

👉 Don’t overload → easier rolling.

4. Roll back tightly into log shape.
5. Wrap and chill for 1–2 hours.

Step 5: Make Mango Glaze

1. Heat mango puree + sugar + lemon juice gently.
2. Stir until smooth and slightly thick.
3. Let cool.

Step 6: Final Decoration

• Drizzle mango glaze over roll
• Dust with powdered sugar
• Top with mango cubes
