Daring Bakers Jully 2010 Swiss swirl ice cream cake

I didn't want to miss this months DB. So I thought I will do a sheduled post.
By the time you read this post we will be in Italy ( Rome) for a week, enjoying good food , drinks etc.....
Our daughter is getting 18 years so we thought we will celebrate her b'day in Rome as she has been doing Latin for the last 6 yrs and she is just crazy for Roman history and culture.

So I won't be ablt to visit all you DB post till I am back from our holidays.

The July 2010 Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Sunita of Sunita’s world- life and food . Sunita challenged everyone to make an ice-cream filled Swiss roll that’s then used to make a bombe with hot fudge. Her recipe is based on an ice cream cake recipe from Taste of Home.-

The moment I saw this recipe in the foroumn I loved it. It really suited for the weather we are having here and I do have a ice cream machine .
We had to make two different ice cream, but I didn't do. I have been really lazy to make dessert and bakes for this month, actually the only baking I did this month was DB.
So I just did a Vanilla Ice cream and I had big plans for making the Strawberry ice cream.And what i did was took half of the vanilla ice cream and mixed with strawberries which were sauted with a bit of sugar, I cooled it down and then added to the half of vanilla ice cream so that atleast I will have 2 flavours as Sunita had told us we needed to make two different flavours.
I didnt do the delicous fudge sauce ( will surely make that as it is a delicous recipe) I just served with strawberry sauce.
I will post the recipe when I come back as I am fast writting thepost the day before we are leaving.

Hi sweetie, Bomb with IceCream looks so yum.

A very happy 18th birthday to S, I bet you are all having a blast there, enjoy the very special time.

My kids are getting ready for college too in 3 weeks, so I think I will take time enjoying the company and come back blogging in September. Right now, busy getting all the doctor's appointments done and some shopping for Trisha's college dorm.

See you when you come back, can
