Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

Hi does anyone have a great Victoria sponge recipe I usually bake mine in a 3inch deep 8inch tin but im finding im not getting the height I would like, as I have got a baby shower cake to bake and would love to achieve a better height then I do or any other suggestions would be great ….Could I add some baking powder I do use self raising flour…

Hi sallylewis

Instead of making one deep cake why not try making three or four rounds in a sandwich tin. You can stack as many as you want to get the height, it’ll be quick baking with perfect results &no layering. Mary Berry has a lovely Vicky recipe on the Great British bake off programme. Just a suggestion. x
