What size is the baking pan for this, and it looks like it has some sort of jam or jelly in the roll???

Hi Frederick, as far as the pan, 15" by 10" with 1" rim. There is no jam or jelly, what looks like jam/jelly is the bottom of the tart being undercooked, so when you roll it up it looks like it has.
