The Victoria Sponge Cake is a typical English cake and is excellent for filling given its’ spongy ‘, a valid alternative to the usual sponge cake.

I filled it with the frosting that we love most at home, but you can use whatever you want, even jams. This cake is also worth the free flow of your imagination.

And since Mother’s Day is getting closer, it seems like a really nice idea to prepare to celebrate yours. What do you say? She will certainly be amazed.

Next time I’ll decorate it with blueberries or with pieces of chocolate. My goodness what an indecision, when in doubt I will prepare two. 🙂

I leave you with the recipe for the thermomix sponge cake.

See you for the next recipe!

Recipe Notes

Alternatively, you can serve the sponge cake only with a sprinkling of icing sugar. On the other hand, if you want to make it taller and therefore have 3 discs, you will need a smaller pan of at least 18 cm.
