This is my favourite recipe for Victoria Sponge Cake, its so easy, light and delicious. The traditional Victoria sandwich is a baking classic and a tasty tea-time treat. Watch my step-by-step recipe for the perfect Victoria sponge filled with soft buttercream cream and strawberry jam. A Victoria Sponge was the favorite sponge cake of Queen Victoria, and has since become a tried-and-true recipe for tea-time sponge cakes. Victoria Sponges are generally filled with jam, and are undecorated on the top, but you can serve each piece with a dollop of whipped cream, or shake some powdered sugar over the top if you'd like.
