  Carefully lift the parchment paper and cake out onto a flat (heat proof surface). I have a Baking Mat that I use for this purpose. As you roll, roll Parchment paper with the cake inside. Slowly, use your hands to roll the cake from the short end to the short end, until completely rolled. Be very careful - Very warm.
