Royal iced Victoria sponge cake, presented in a tin.

Was a perfectly balanced cake : totally even, flat bottom sponge cake with a slightly domed top cake.

The royal icing needed to be a bit thicker than it was. Also put too much jam in, which decided to seep out.

Not going to lie - I didn’t make the glitter gel writing icing or the sugar roses. I’m not that skilled!
