There's always room for dessert-especially when it's this eye-catching frozen fare. "We like strawberry yogurt in the filling, but different flavors work well, too," suggests Joan Colbert. The make-ahead dessert is often requested at her Sigourney, Iowa home.

Made this for a small group....Nothing left to take home !! I tweeked a bit...used banana cream pudding, added some cut up bananas and strawberry bits to the yougurt mix, along with an extra 4 oz of strawberry yogurt. Absolutely delicious! One note: In the future, for presentation, I would cut a thin slice off each end, to make it look even prettier. Otherwise, the filling does not butt up to the end of the cake roll, due to the way the filling is spread.

The Angle foodRecipewe really enjoyed. It keeps so well frozen and whipped it out for evening guests and slices and looks so special on the plate. I agree s little stronger strawberry flavour would enhanse. Maybe just slice in a few fresh raw strawberrys with the yugurt.Weight watchers even approved the recipe.

This was great and easy to make, think I will try adding lemon juice to the cake mix and use lemon filling next time.

I have not made this yet, but wondered why the incorrect pan size was listed. Does your kitchen test these recipes before you list them? Eileen

Although I am not a diabetic personally, my mother is and I was looking for a dessert that I could serve at dinner that would be ok for her to eat. I must say that I absolutely loved the taste of this recipe and will be making it for myself and my daughter as well as for my mother!!!!

This tasted great. I looked up other roll cakes using angel food and they made two jelly roll pans for each box mix. One to eat, one for company or sharing. I made one strawberry and one blueberry but used white chocolate instant pudding - will be making this lots.

I made this for easter...what a hit! Everyone loved it. It's light and a great summer dessert.I did change a few things. I added fresh sliced strawberries & if you want a goos strawberry pink color you need to add about 8 drops of red food color.

This is the most incredible dessert! It is very easy to make and the presentation is just beautiful! I sprinkled each slice with toasted sliced almonds, placed two fanned-out strawberries on each plate and dusted lightly with powdered sugar. We had a diabetic in our party and I was looking for something everyone could enjoy. It received raves! It does make too much cake batter for a 15 x 10 pan. I used an 18 x 13 pan and still had some batter left over. Be SURE not to overcook, as the wax paper will be more difficult to remove. I can't wait to make this again!!!

Re: Angel Food Cake RollI prepared the cake mix according to directions, but found that when it baked, it oozed over the edges of cookie pan and was much to thick to roll properly. It completely cracked through at 3 different places.I managed to get it together, placed the filling in it and rolled it back up. It is in my freezer and I'm sure it will taste good, but am not sure I'd make it again. IF I do, I will use half of the angel food cake batter
