In reply to Lynda Brown. Hi Lynda! I am so glad you enjoyed so much!!! I would recommend using Sally's Baking Addiction's chocolate swiss roll recipe--I have made it with great success.

Thanks Kristen - this was amazing. I’ve always been scared to try making a roll, but your instructions were perfect. Do you know how this could be altered to a chocolate roll (British Yule Log)? My Dad always made this at Christmas but we don’t have his recipe 😔
Thank you!

In reply to Brenda Caldwell. Hi Brenda. I find a slightly damp cloth helps, but is NOT necessary. And yes, the lemon juice in a bottle will be okay :) Enjoy!

In reply to Tru. I hope you find that the lemon juice will really elevate the flavors! And yes--the floured towels make a world of difference!

I have made pumpkin rolls for family and friends for years, and I too was very intimidated but with practice I figured out the flour towels after trying a kitchen towel (with lint.) LOL I have never used lemon juice, but will in my next roll. I have a dear friend whose husband likes pumpkin rolls but she doesn't like pumpkin. So I just used 1 tsp of cinnamon and a 1/2 tsp of cloves for spices and in place of the pumpkin I used applesauce. It came out kind of tough, but I think I overcooked it a little. It tasted pretty good but to me pumpkin rolls always just taste like spice cake with cream cheese frosting. I will keep experimenting with timing and try that lemon juice in both! Thank you

In reply to Cindy. Hi Cindy, I personally think it is delicious served with a cup of coffee or mulled cider--it really does not need anything more :)

Thanks for this lovely recipe. I want to make it for Thanksgiving but am trying to figure out how to serve it, like with some fruits maybe?

In reply to Journey. Pumpkin puree is sold in a can. But if you pumpkin pie filling in a can, it is already sweet and has added spices. The result will not be same. If you try it out anyways, let us know how it goes.

Why do you say that pumpkin puree is a must? Unfortunately I couldn't find it and got pumpkin in the can for pies.
