PUMPKIN ORANGE CAKE ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 15 x 10-inch jelly roll pan with foil, your foil should be above the rim of the pan by about an inch. Sprinkle the foil with powdered sugar. Prepare the cake mix according to package directions adding 1 teaspoon of orange peel at the end of the mixing. Spread into the jelly roll pan.
• Bake for 30 minutes until the top of the cake springs back when you tough it. Immediately turn the cake out onto a prepared towel. Carefully peel the foil off. Roll the cake and the towel together starting with narrow end. Cool on a wire rack.
• Combine the pumpkin, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and remaining orange peel in a medium bowl. Carefully unroll the cake, remove towel, and spread the pumpkin mixture over the cake. Reroll cake. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of powdered sugar. You may drizzle the jelly over the cake if desired. Serve immediately or REFRIGERATE until serving time.

PUMPKIN ROLL CAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a jelly-roll pan with parchment paper. Lightly grease and flour the paper.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, ginger, nutmeg and salt.
• In a separate bowl, beat the granulated sugar and eggs until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Mix in the pumpkin until combined. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture. Pour the batter out onto the prepared jelly-roll pan. Drop the pan twice on the counter to even out the batter and release any bubbles. Bake for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, dust a dishtowel with the confectioners' sugar. Immediately transfer the cake to the powdered dishtowel and gently roll from one short end to the other. Refrigerate on a pan or plate until completely cool, about 2 hours.
• For the filling: Combine the confectioners' sugar, cream cheese, butter and vanilla. Beat until light and fluffy.
• Unroll the cake and spread with the filling. Re-roll the cake and wrap with plastic wrap for 1 to 2 hours. Dust with confectioners' sugar before serving.

SURPRISE PUMPKIN CAKE ROLL

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 15-by-10-inch jelly roll pan with cooking spray and line it with parchment paper.
• Place the egg yolks in a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment. Set the mixer to medium speed and gradually add 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar. Increase to high speed and beat until the eggs are lightened in color.
• In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until foamy. Gradually add the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and beat on high until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
• With the mixer running on medium speed, add the oil, milk, extract, zest, spice, salt and orange food color to the egg yolk mixture. Mix well until combined. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the flour and mix using a rubber spatula until just combined. Add a third of the beaten egg whites to the mixture and fold to combine. Add the remaining egg whites and gently fold to combine.
• Sprinkle a tea towel with the confectioners' sugar.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth with an offset spatula to level. Bake until the sponge cake is springy and lightly brown around the edges, 10 to 12 minutes. Immediately turn the cake out onto the prepared tea towel. Roll up loosely and let cool completely.
• For the buttercream and decors: In a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, mix together the butter and confectioners' sugar. Begin on low speed until crumbly, and then increase to high and beat for 3 minutes until smooth and fluffy.
• Add the vanilla extract and beat again for another minute. If you find the buttercream is too stiff, you may add milk or heavy cream 1 tablespoon at a time until the mixture is spreading consistency. Place about 2 cups of buttercream in a disposable piping bag.
• Divide the remaining frosting into 4 bowls. Tint each bowl of frosting with each of the food colors: red, yellow, orange and green. Transfer the red, yellow and orange frostings each to a separate disposable piping bag with a 1/2-inch hole snipped in the end. Divide the green frosting between 2 piping bags: one fitted with a small leaf tip, and the other fitted with a 1/8-inch round tip.
• Slice 2 large edges off of each piece of kiwi, avoiding the seeded white center as best you can. Remove the seeds and any of the white center from the pieces using a small paring knife. Cut each of the pieces in half.
• Assemble the cake: Unroll the sponge cake and pipe some of the untinted frosting on the cake. Spread evenly. Beginning about 1 inch from the end of the curled edge, place the kiwi halves upright into the frosting. Pipe rows of frosting on each side of the kiwi until the frosting is the same height as the cut pieces of fruit. Place the peeled clementines on top of the kiwi with the stem ends toward the open ends of the sponge roll. Use more frosting to fill in the gaps around the clementines. Roll the fruit into the cake and trim the edge of the sponge so that no seam remains and the 2 ends of the sponge cake meet. Roll the assembled sponge cake in parchment paper and a layer of plastic wrap and refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Spread a large sheet of plastic wrap on a work surface. Pipe red, yellow and orange stripes of frosting side-by-side on the plastic wrap so that all 3 colors touch each other. Roll the frosting into the plastic sausage-style and snip one end. Place the frosting roll in a large piping bag fitted with a large open star tip. Squeeze the frosting out onto a test plate until all 3 colors extrude evenly.
• Remove the cake from the refrigerator and pipe a fat, undulating rope down the top center of the cake; immediately top with the sprinkles. Use the reserved green frosting bag fitted with the 1/8-inch round decorator tip to pipe vines on top of the center décor. Use the green frosting bag fitted with the leaf tip to pipe leaves around the vines. Trim the ends from the cake roll using a serrated knife to reveal the kiwifruit and clementine "pumpkin" inside the filled cake.
• Keep the cake refrigerated until ready to serve. Cut the cake chilled for the neatest slices.
