  10. Turn out the cake onto a lightly dusted parchment paper and add filling mixture.
  11. Add the whipped double cream, being careful not to go right to the edges.
  12. Using the parchment paper, gently start to roll the sponge to form a Swiss roll.
  13. Cover the log with chocolate fudge buttercream, using a fork to run across the top lengthways.
  14. Leave to set in the fridge and dust with icing sugar just before serving.
