Victoria sponge cake
Description
Delicious baked goods for the whole family. I was never much of a sponge cake fan… until I tried Victoria sponge. From now on in our household, Victoria sponge is our number-one bake—loved by everyone, always welcome, and never gets old. By the way, Victoria sponge is usually baked as one large cake, but we prefer to make small, individual portions—it’s easier to serve and looks nicer. Of course, nothing stops you from using this same recipe to make a classic, traditional Victoria sponge. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
