Having said that, I wouldn't sweat it, I'd just use a slice of pound
cake (do they make that in chocolate?) or some kind of cake. Other
than the ? Hostess swiss roll, I have no idea where you'd find it.

Not necessarily chocolate. IME it's normally strawberry or apricot jam in a
vanilla/lemon sponge roll. In fact, the thought of a *chocolate* Swiss Roll
is bizarre.

Exactly! I haven't the vaguest idea if it actually has anything to
do with Swiss food, but that's what it's called.

I knew you would! although I would call it a jelly roll. To me a
swiss roll is more like a (sp) busch noelle without the frosting.
But you get the general idea.

What was in that link is exactly what I think of as a Swiss roll. The
sponge is a bit thick, but otherwise that's it.

jelly roll
Known since the mid-1800s, jelly rolls are cakes made of a thin sheet of SPONGE
CAKE, spread with jam or jelly (and sometimes whipped cream or frosting) and
rolled up. This type of cake is traditionally sprinkled with confectioners'
sugar, rather than being frosted. When cut, jelly rolls have an attractive
pinwheel design. The British term for jelly roll is Swiss roll .

It can be any rolled thin sponge cake with filling, not just chocolate.

That's a British recipe - hence the reference to caster sugar,
icing sugar, and greaseproof paper and calling it a Swiss roll.
However, when I make it I turn it out onto a clean tea towel, not
greaseproof paper, and roll up the sponge cake and towel
together, then allow to cool. If you cool it flat on greaseproof
paper, the sponge will break when you try to roll it.
I just wish I could find a bakery version these days - I use it
in making trifle and it would make assembly much simpler
and quicker.

Goodness, Nancy - that's a real flashback. My uncle used to work in the
office at the J. Lyons headquarters. Regular Lyons cafés/cafeterias were
cheap and used to be all through London; the Corner Houses were in the
London West End (main shopping area) and were restaurants and a little more
ritzy. I haven't thought about them for years and have been away for so
long I'm not sure they're still in business.

So, in the recipe could you substitute a Twinkie, sliced lengthwise?
(the presentation would be all wrong, but I bet it would work...)

Oh, isn't that funny. I had never heard of them before (why
would I have?) ... I was only looking for an illustration of what
is known here as a Swiss Roll. Obviously, Alan gets the idea and
can use whatever he thinks would substitute if he can't find Swiss
Roll or jelly roll/whatever anyone wants to call it.
Your Lyons sort of reminds me of either Horn & Hardart or
(help me, someone) Chock Full of Nuts? corner stores. One of them
had counter service, and I would get the *incredibly* fattening
date nut and cream cheese sandwiches.

(laughing!) Don't be mean, I was trying to help Alan out, he gets
the idea what the recipe called for, he didn't know what swiss roll
was, now he knows. As a matter of fact, Yodels, if you peel off the
chocolate, are closer to what I know as swiss roll than about anything
else.
Unless he feels like making a major project out of his dessert, he
should take a stroll down the frozen food aisle for what kind of cakes
are available. By now, I'm sure he's sorry he asked.

I wan't being mean, I was actually (almost) serious. The only reason a
sliced or butterflied Twinkie wouldn't work in the original recipe is
that it would look ridiculous.

It's generic UK speak for any rolled up spongecake filled with either a
creamy filling or jam. Can be iced or not.

Yes, sort of. Can be any flavour cake, any sort of filling and any sort
of icing or not. In the posted recipe, might go with white cake and
strawberry jam filling. Doesn't need to be iced.

And Drakes still does call them Yodels, but there

thin chocolate coating.

In the Uk a Swiss roll isn't necessarily chocolate cake. It can also be a
plain sponge cake rolled up with either strawberry or raspberry jam, and
sometimes with butter cream as well.
