cake filling...?

Question

how do you make that cream/icing filling that goes in a victoria sandwich cake?

Answer 1

my grandad made brilliant cakes and that would be a butter cream filling.

he would mix stork butter with electric mixer with icing sugar and a few drops of vanilla essence. If you don't have icing sugar you can use golden syrup.

It can be flavoured with cocoa powder for chocolate, lemon zest for a lemony sponge cake or just good old vanilla.

Enjoy!

Answer 2

The Victoria sponge cake was named after Queen Victoria, who favoured a slice of the sponge cake with her afternoon tea. It is often referred to simply as sponge cake, though it contains additional fat. A traditional Victoria sponge consists of jam and whipped cream sandwiched between two sponge cakes; the top of the cake is not iced or decorated.

A Victoria sponge is made in two main ways. The traditional method involves creaming caster sugar with fat (usually butter, although margarine can also be used), mixing thoroughly with beaten egg, then folding flour and raising agent into the mixture. The modern method, using an electric mixer or food processor, involves simply whisking all the ingredients together until creamy.[1][2][3] In the latter case, a little extra raising agent is normally used, and some recipes call for an extra-soft butter or margarine.[citation needed] Both are relatively quick and simple, producing consistent results, making this type of mixture one of the most popular for children and people in a hurry. This basic 'cake' mixture has been made into an endless variety of treats and puddings, including fairy cakes, butterfly cakes, chocolate cake, Eve's pudding and many others.[1][2][3]

Other names for the Victoria Sponge are Victoria Sandwich and, less commonly, Victorian Cake.
