Queen Victoria was known for enjoying small sponge cakes filled with jam with her afternoon tea. The modern version of the Victoria Sponge Cake, also known as a Victoria Sandwich or Victorian Cake, is a two-layered airy cake filled with both jam and whipped cream. Classically served with a dusting of powdered sugar on top, or a dollop of whipped cream, we turned this English teatime treat into our own vegan version.
