Apple roll is one of my favorite cake  , easy to make, light; no fat in it  and can be made a day ahead. Also  it can be served  with ice cream as a desert.

I prefer to make  apple sauce myself. I make usually more then I need and  keep rest of apple sauce in refrigerator or freezer.If you wish, you can use ready apple sauce

 Turkey is one of the major sultana raisin producer. The sultana raisin is small, sweet, pale green and seedless grape. It grows in Aegean region of Turkey. Mostly dry from is used  for cooking. Recently production of wine has began from Sultana grape.
