Blue......Velvet roll.

Hello all,

 This will be totally non-partisan baking here. Everyone has heard of Red Velvet Cake...yes? If not, you can check Bing or Google images. Quite a nice dessert for sure.

 Enter the world of twisted pumpkin rolls and a quite different dessert presents itself. I call it The Blue Velvet Roll ( no pumpkin added ). 

  The reason that the frosting is brown is because we added the required bakers chocolate to the frosting and not the roll itself. The reason we did that is because if you add the chocolate to the roll, you need to add nearly a full ounce of artificial color to get beyond the brown. The way we did it, it required only 1/16th of an ounce or about 30 drops of color. 

 We are planning to make Green Velvet rolls for next years St Patrick's Day festivities.

 I can only guarantee that you will not find any desserts like these in a Betty Crocker recipe book. For now...mine is blue.

So....the news shows the worst....always.

  Hello everyone,

  I could re-state all the bad news we have heard on the televisions, radio and newspapers....or, I could share with the world, my world, of pumpkin rolls. Why not? I'm not running for president anymore. I should be allowed an 'over the top' shameless plug for something I created. Thanks. Read on. Or better yet, click the link and "like" the page.

  I made my first pumpkin roll dessert way back in October of 2012. Okay, a little embellishment is allowed. Thanks again. Since that time, with help from family and friends ( for flavor ideas ) , we now have 16 custom flavors of pumpkin roll. Really? YES. Each flavor starts as a traditional pumpkin roll dessert.....then the extras are added. Chocolate for some, fresh fruit for others. It can get pretty crazy in the kitchen for sure!

The first photo is our now famous Pistachio Pineapple pumpkin roll just before the addition of the pineapple chunks and re-roll. Yum.

This one is the famous Pistachio Pineapple rolled up. Looks great!

This one is for adults only. It is our Rum Raisin pumpkin roll. The raisins are soaked in rum and not baked in...so they retain the rum.

This was the first incarnation of the Rocky Road pumpkin roll. Has chocolate, marshmallows and peanuts.

We do pumpkin roll events at various locations..so far locally. With a pumpkin roll sample event we pair it with roll sales and raffles usually to benefit a family or something in the community. These events need around 14 to 16 pumpkin rolls.

This is our 'soon to be trademarked' Baconator pumpkin roll. Each roll has a half pound ( pre-cooked weight ) of bacon and some real good maple syrup stuff added to the frosting.

This is an example of a "sample" tray. The sample sizes are fairly small, but with 7 or more flavors to try...we don't want folks to fill up to quickly.

I forgot to add a link to my site:  https://www.facebook.com/TrevorsTwistedPumpkinRolls

 Our rolls are over two pounds each and can serve 16 people. Have a party coming up or just willing to try something different? We can deliver and ship within Washington State....so far. Let your friends know about us too. Nearly half of our current list of 16 flavors has come from friends and family member ideas! Maybe yours will be next?

Thanks again,

Trevor Dodge
