A double chocolate orange ganache filled swiss roll (similar to a jam roll or jelly roll) but with a fun giraffe skin themed outer layer. A fun baking project to make that truly does look like an actual giraffe neck, with a few tweaks of the colours you could make a panda, a World map etc play around with the recipe and have fun!

This looks really cool & thanks Barry n Family 🤗
Yeah should really make more crazy recipes like that bruff
How do you make a Swiss roll
You push him down the hill
Actually really blew my mind at the end – looks awesome!
Chloe is like Mrs.B; no sense of humor. I’m the same way, LOL.
I love that they keep a cardboard cow in their kitchen
I LOVE THE SWISS CAKE ROLL TOO AND IT IS VERY GOOD TOO
I think you should make this again and just surprisee Mrs b with it now that she's allowed chocolate
I absolutely loved Encarta 95. Encyclopedia as well… Yep, I’m a nerd.
why does she always look miserable.She smiles but her eyes dont
Looks like your giraffe jokes… went over Mrs B’s head heh heh 🦒 I’ll see myself out… 😆
Here's my favourite dad joke for you Barry ….
What's the most common type of owl in the UK………….the Teat! …..Tea towel
You should keep hed-whisk to yourself as thieves might think it’s a whisk worth taking
If you've given up chocolate for Lent, Becky, I say 'Well done you!'
Just love that you got Sarah Connor in your vids!
When doing the Attenborough part, I was like "that sounds more like Churchill"
Barry: Sounds like a drunk man…
Me: .. or that, yeah.. true
You two are so much fun, hilarious. Such a pleasure to watch. Awesome cake
You really stuck your neck out with this one.
Giraffes are amazing creatures. When two males fights for a female one might knock the other one out. The victorious one will stand over the loser until he wakes up and then will make sure he’s alright and walking it off before going to find his female. I’ve never seen that level of compassion in the animal kingdom.
I used to love scrolling through encarta 96 and my favourite entry was the harmonica video, that music was bangin’
what is secondary school in the UK
Swiss roll will keep in the freezer for when Mrs B is allowing herself chocolate again…. 🙂
So cute. Have you tested freezing the beige instead of par baking?
Looks awesome! I made one a few years ago for a giraffe loving nephew….froze the skin outline before topping with the brown batter. Worked really well and they really impress people! 😊
OH MY GOD, BARRY! I LOVE YOUR SHIRT!!
Argh looks like part of a giraffes neck 🦒 sorry Jeffrey 😞 🤣
I want to do this except i'll use a line of marshmallows along the middle, use red cream cheese icing and colour the ends blood red except the marshmallow. Then it will look like a bloody chuck of giraffe leg with a bone in the middle lol
why can't mrs b have chocolate? id be so sad if that were me 😔
I wish I could go back in time to give all this good advice to my mother. She never did get a Swiss roll to, well, roll She was an excellent baker, so this failure was highly aggravating. We were thrilled because we got cake, which is delicious in almost any shape
Best jumper yet
“Back my day we used Encarta 95” – Barry – this resonates so well with people of our generation! 😂
Aaaaand I know what I'm making for easter….
Hedgewhisk! 😆
100% attempting to make this for my daughters birthday this year! 😱😍 🦒
My little girls favourite animal. Definitely giving this a go for her birthday cake
Wow Barry!!! 🤩 I say this in the most loving way: I’m one of those followers who thoroughly enjoy watching you in the kitchen and often go “Nonono! Watch out Barry!” to my screen. This episode didn’t include a single “that’s not gonna end well Barry”-moment, and the outcome absolutely mirrors the process! Way to go! 💪💪💪 What an amazing Swiss roll-knowledge you sprung on us there! I would’ve loved to eat Mrs B’s piece 🤓❤️ All the best from Sweden!
Mrs B, I know your pain.👍 I'm not eating chocolate either. This recipe was so tempting, but not as torturous as watching the Hotel Chocolate Velvetiser advert.😁
There was much grinding and ganaching of teeth…
I must have missed some videos…why no chocolate Mrs.B?? Diet???😳🥺
Why is mrs. B on a diet!
Does Swiss roll come from Switzerland?
Image result for where does swiss roll originated from
Despite its name, the Swiss roll appears not to have originated in Switzerland. Swiss rolls are called Biskuitroulade or Roulade in Swiss Standard German, gâteau roulé or roulade in French, rotolo or biscotto arrotolato in Italian and rullada in Rumantsch.
You could blitz the chocolate in a food processor.
Why is Mrs B not eating chocolate? Is she ok?
