@@egglover8256 from the website and he use self raising flour (flour + baking powder) you can find the recipe how to make self raising flour in youtube
vanilla buttercream is amazing in this as well!! tip: if you put the cream on first, the jam doesnt spill over the edges of the cream, so it is much easier to spread and keep in place
i've already tried a few of your cakes (and other recipes) and i must say they all turned out PERFECT. whenever I have time to cook or bake something new I always go to your website for a recipe. thank you so much for all that amazing stuff that you share!
Oh my, that is beautiful! Usually I don't like just classic things because, you know, I think it's to simple and decide to make profiteroles and soufflés...
This is my go-to cake recipe! I just started to become interested in baking and this one my first successful cake! It tastes DELICIOUS and it's super easy to make! My whole family LOVES it! Thank for for the great recipe Donal!
Willowflower No it is not. Butter is yellow. The butter that IS white is the whipped butter and it's delicious and fresh. So if that british person commenting above has a problem with it, kick rocks.
I got this from my friend and i see it a lot in other victoria sponge cake videos/recipes but it makes a absolutely lovely touch to add sliced strawberrys in with the cream and strawberry jam.
Hello From St. Augustine, FL. I just made the cams tonight. It came out right, spongy. I will finish frosting it up tomorrow & eat it for breakfast before I go to my Dental cleaning, ha! Thank you.
i tried it....my family loves the cake .....glad i went across the border to get the Irish butter as my country doesnt import this particular brand.....best butter i ever tasted.
My mom was a working mom and she wasn't a good cook XD but once, when I was like 11, she baked a cake for my sister's birthday, and it was ONE OF THESE! I never knew until now! hahaha Nice
Coincidentally I made this Cake last week (and using KerryGold as well! ) and OMG So buttery, light and delicious - a bit salty at the bottom but in a pleasant way actually. I didn't use jam but fresh strawberries. Next time I'll try the jam again.
Looks wonderful! You just can't beat Irish butter, especially Kerrygold! Now if they would only start selling an unsalted one too, like they do in the States...
I really enjoy your presentation donal and enjoy your vids. As a pro chef its so inspiring to see a food dude talking passionately about his food. Keep it up
This cakes looks outstanding. I know I will be on with baking this tomorrow. Perfect to finish off my strawberry and champagne preserve on for an extra special touch! 👍😋😋👩🏻🍳
@@Rickjackett this is a lovely cake. Perfect texture it’s also delicious sandwiched together with lemon curd or passion fruit curd! Never get 8 slices always go for a very generous slice. 😋🥰🤣Your traditional Irish scones are also a go to recipe for me! Never fail!
@@Rickjackett Hi Donal. I’m not too far from Derbyshire and Chatsworth with its picturesque villages along with some quaint little tearooms. So, cake and scones always a winner! I would say reasonable (I love making cakes) and I’m very pedantic about them looking perfect and tasting perfect! 🤣🤣🤣🤣👩🍳🍰
Tip: pipe a border of cream around the edge of the bottom layer before you put in the jam. You can add a little more and it won't seep out between the layers.
Hello Donald. I’ve made already this cake a few times. I’ll make it today as my birthday cake. It’s really easy to make and it’s more than delicious. I’m looking forward to bake the chocolate cake also. Thanks. 😃
This brings back so many memories! I loved victoria sponges and also had a mild obsession with kerrygold where I wouldn't eat butter unless it was salted and kerrygold. Children are so strange.
Ah, Kerrygold butter....the best!! Funny I always use salted Kerrygold butter in my baking, you just can't beat that flavour!! Thanks Donal...you are so right, it is the perfect summer bake! I'm going to a bar-b-que this weekend (Irish weather permitting of course...lol) and you've given me the inspiration to bake this to bring for the afters! :)

Kerrygold Irish butter is SOO good!
True that
In Australia, Duck River is the money butter....literally, It's like $7.00 for 500g lol
I know right
Somehow an understatement
Totally agreed
This cake really looks wonderful! (also, I can't help but get a big smile whenever his aussie shepherd 3:40 pops up, they're such cool dogs!)
This is my go-to cake recipe! I just started to become interested in baking and this one my first successful cake! It tastes DELICIOUS and it's super easy to make! My whole family LOVES it! Thank for for the great recipe Donal!
That's so great to hear!
Best part of the video is Donal’s DOGGO getting amazed by the food. We need to see more of that lovely handsome dog in the videos .
I love how you make me smile after watching your videos. Your recipes are always mouth-watering and your amazing personality always shines through! 😊
Thank u so much for the recipe!! I made the best vic sponge ever!! The sponge was light an fluffy! I used golden castor sugar btw xxx
i love all cake but victoria sponge just has to be my favourit
all butter should be creamy yellow/golden, don't know what the hell they have in america.
We have KerryGold.
A lot of the butter here (in the US) is white.
Willowflower No it is not. Butter is yellow.
The butter that IS white is the whipped butter and it's delicious and fresh. So if that british person commenting above has a problem with it, kick rocks.
I have sticks of butter in my fridge that are white.
Fehr AlMehdar yea we up in the white north got good butter
I got this from my friend and i see it a lot in other victoria sponge cake videos/recipes but it makes a absolutely lovely touch to add sliced strawberrys in with the cream and strawberry jam.
Your enthusiasm and positivity brings me so much joy!!!
Fun fact: the Victoria sponge cake is named after Queen Victoria. The Queen enjoyed a slice everyday for her tea... Thanks for video x :)
Harpal Kang I heard that Queen Victoria invent or probably "invent" this recipe.
Cakes are a thing of beauty
I made this yesterday I made raspberry jam it was so nice I would recommend this
I made this yesterday, it was a massive hit with everyone at work.

Coincidentally I made this Cake last week (and using KerryGold as well! ) and OMG So buttery, light and delicious - a bit salty at the bottom but in a pleasant way actually. I didn't use jam but fresh strawberries. Next time I'll try the jam again.
Get that product placement $$$, Donal!
This cake looks divine :) And Max looks so fluffy with one ear down and one up aaarghh I'm gonna kidnapp that soft puppy! (not creepy at all)
Looks delicious! Another cake to make my mouth water..
Looks wonderful! You just can't beat Irish butter, especially Kerrygold! Now if they would only start selling an unsalted one too, like they do in the States...
Donal Skehan mate love it!!!!! nothing beats the basic victoria bad ass sponge cake :)
Dan Churchill dead right :)

I think he got the sponge from the shops.!!!!
we saw it go into the oven but that was it!!
Donal, you might have just become my favourite person on UA-cam.
Donal är världens bästa och man blir på så bra humör av honom, hans glädje till mat & bak blir man så glad utav 💖🇸🇪
I love it! It looks fantastic! I'm sure I am going to try this recipe soon!
Great recipe again. Love your channel! x
Always love cake.
Lovely video. Wonderful recipe.

You're video makes me feel better about everything. Thanks for sharing💕
I'm nearly finished making this and it looks so so good! This recipe is wonderful🤗
Glad you like it!

Jimin Trasheu did u have the jams to make it lol
I like that he always gives us a full recipe. Some cooking channels never give us a written recipe. Then, how can we try that at home?
Omg! So decadent.
You should team up with Mary Berry on something.
jillhbaudhaan haha would be fun!
This looks lovely! Thank you for sharing!
You are so good at baking and cooking I love your videos
the poor dog is like: "I am always left out of everything? Where's my treat?" xD
As an American and Anglophile I would love to have a piece of sponge cake at a Village fete with a nice cuppa!😊🇬🇧
Just wanna say, Donal looks so cute!
Donal, this is just an amazing one. Thanks for your videos, will be waiting for more to come. Because of you, someday I want to visit Ireland. :)
