Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 30×40 cm baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whip the eggs with granulated sugar, vanilla sugar, and salt until thick and pale.
  3. Fold in the sunflower oil, red food coloring, and milk until just combined.
  4. Sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and cocoa powder, then fold into the egg mixture until smooth.
  5. Pour the batter onto the lined baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes.
  6. Turn the baked sponge onto a sugared towel and roll it up from the short side while still warm. Let it cool completely.
  7. Whip the heavy cream, mascarpone, sugar, vanilla sugar, and klopfix until thick and fluffy.
  8. Unroll the cooled sponge and spread the mascarpone filling evenly over it, then re-roll tightly.
