Betty Crocker Victoria Sponge Cake

The Victoria sponge, also known as the Victoria sandwich, is a British cake that has stood the test of time. With its simple yet delightful combination of yellow cake, strawberry jam, and whipped cream, it's a beloved treat for any occasion, but it’s especially perfect for tea time. The origins of the Victoria sponge can be traced back to the 19th century, during the reign of Queen Victoria. It is said that this classic cake was a favorite of the queen herself, often served at her afternoon tea gatherings.

The beauty of the Victoria sponge lies its simplicity. The light and airy cake, in our version we use Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ French Vanilla Cake Mix, creates the perfect base for the sweet and tangy filling of strawberry jam and whipped cream filling. Whether you're a seasoned baker or a novice in the kitchen, the Victoria sponge is an easy-to-make English treat. Its timeless appeal and classic taste make it a crowd-pleaser for all generations.
