Basic ingredients for aga victoria sponge

  • 225g Castor sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1tsp Baking powder
  • 1tsp Vanilla extract
  • 225g self-raising flour

  • A little writing icing Pipettes (with your choice of juice)
  • 4 tbsp Strawberry or Raspberry jam
  • 300g whip cream

How to make aga victoria sponge

  • Use a palette knife to temper the chocolate and spread it onto a piece of baking paper. Once the chocolate is almost set, cut five circles of 6 cm each and place them in the refrigerator to cool. This is a good idea to have a few spares in case one break.
  • Once set, decorate each piece with writing icing. Then, use a sharp point knife to gently twist each one until it has a small hole. Take care not to crack the chocolate.
  • Preheat oven. Gas 5/ 190°C or 375°F
  • Add 225g of butter. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl. Beat until soft, smooth, and pale in color
  • Mix in the caster sugar until well combined.
  • Each egg should be added one at a while. Each egg should be thoroughly mixed before you add the next.
  • One teaspoon vanilla extract and one teaspoon baking powder should be added.
  • Add the flour to the bowl.
  • Two 8-inch round cake tins should be lined with baking paper. To make the surface flatter, fill each one with half of the batter.
  • Now Bake for 20 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow cooling in the tins. Next, run a knife along the edges of each one. Turn upside down and take out the baking paper.
  • Use a 7 cm round cutter to cut five circles from each one
  • Sprinkle icing sugar on five circles. These will be your tops.
  • Turn the five remaining ones over. Pipe the cream in rosettes along the edges of each one with the jam in its center.
  • Place the cake tops on top of the cake bases gently.
  • Place a chocolate circle on each cake. Place the pipettes in the juicer and gently push the chocolate hole into it.
