Dating Back To The 15th Century The Victoria sponge Was One Of The First Cakes To Be Made Without Yeast!

In The 19th Century Dinner Was Typically Between 8pm - 9pm Meaning There Was A Long Period Between Lunch & Dinner. This Is Where 'Afternoon Tea' Came In!  Anne Russell Often Complained About Hunger Around Mid Afternoon & Requested That  Tea & Light Food Was Brought To Her. Before Long She Started Inviting Friends Over Including Queen Victoria For Afternoon Tea! Queen Victoria Quickly Became Fond Of Afternoon Tea Which Consisted Of A Wide Range Of Tea, Cake & Biscuits.
