No it has to roll up hot. Or it won't roll at all. It needs to be completely cooled before you put the icing on and it won't roll if its cooled flat

Can you ice it before the first roll or does it have to be rolled twice?

This is so delicious and I have made it a few times and always get compliments. I do get real nervous when rolling it out. I'm afraid that it is going to crack. So, I think that I will save your guide, just for reassurance. Thank you!
