love the idea about flipping to the skicky side--never ever thought of this!

 I always flip my cake back over and fill the sticky side with the icing/filling.  The presentation is so much nicer that way.

if you don't want to go to the trouble of rolling this cake up, you can always just frost the cooled cake with the filling!

Ive made these for years but the outside is always sticky. What am I doing wrong?
