Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a rectangular baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar using an electric mixer at high speed for about 5-7 minutes until thick and pale.
- Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt into the egg mixture and gently fold in.
- Fold in orange zest, orange juice, and vanilla extract until just incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the lined baking tray and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
- Whip together heavy cream and powdered sugar in a clean bowl until soft peaks form.
- Let the sponge cool for about 5 minutes, then invert onto a powdered-sugar-dusted kitchen towel and roll it up width-wise.
- Once cooled, unroll the cake, spread the whipped cream filling, and re-roll without the towel.
- Trim uneven ends, dust with powdered sugar, slice, and serve.

Notes
Use room temperature eggs for a light sponge and be gentle when folding in ingredients to avoid deflating the batter.
