#### *Instructions:*

1. *Prepare the sponge cake:*
Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Separate egg whites from yolks. Beat the yolks with sugar until pale and fluffy. Add vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites to stiff peaks.
Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture. Sift in the flour and baking powder, folding carefully to retain the airiness.
Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cake is golden and springs back when touched.

2. *Roll the cake:*
While the cake is warm, turn it out onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Remove the parchment paper.
Roll the cake up tightly (with the towel inside) and let it cool completely.

3. *Prepare the filling:*
In a bowl, beat the cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth.
Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
Add tangerine zest and mix gently.

4. *Assemble the roll:*
Unroll the cooled sponge cake. Spread the filling evenly over the surface.
Arrange the tangerine segments evenly across the filling.
Roll the cake back up tightly (without the towel).

5. *Chill and serve:*
Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
Dust with powdered sugar before serving and garnish with additional tangerine slices or zest if desired.

#### *Tips:*
Ensure the cake is warm (not hot) when rolling it to prevent cracks.
Add a touch of cinnamon to the filling for extra warmth and flavor.
