This jelly roll was just okay. It wasn't as flavorful as I was hoping for.

I'm not a big fan of jelly rolls, but this one was actually pretty good. The cake was moist and the filling was creamy and sweet.

This jelly roll was a disaster! The cake cracked when I tried to roll it up, and the filling was too runny.

The cake part of this jelly roll was a bit dry, but the filling was delicious. I think I'll try using a different cake recipe next time.

This jelly roll was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still a good dessert. I think I'll try making it again with less sugar next time.
