About Victoria sponge

Victoria Sponge, a classic British cake, is made with two layers of light, fluffy sponge batter typically composed of flour, butter, sugar, eggs, and a touch of vanilla extract. The layers are traditionally sandwiched together with a sweet filling of raspberry jam and whipped cream or buttercream. Named after Queen Victoria, who was said to enjoy it with her afternoon tea, this treat is a staple of British baking. While indulgently delicious, Victoria Sponge is high in sugar and saturated fats, making it best enjoyed in moderation. It provides a source of quick energy from its carbohydrates but offers limited essential nutrients. Substituting whole-grain flour or reducing sugar content can enhance its nutritional profile slightly. Despite being a less health-focused dessert, its simplicity and charm continue to make it a cherished favorite for celebrations and tea-time gatherings worldwide.
