This is a summery twist on the classic Victoria sandwich, a British teatime treat named after Queen Victoria, who allegedly had a slice of sponge cake stacked with jam and buttercream to accompany her tea every afternoon. This cake is a bit denser than its spongier counterparts, something more akin to American pound cake. This version also gets a lemony peach tea soak, ensuring extra moist layers that still hold up to a hefty amount of filling. The peach compote capitalizes on gorgeous summer produce, but it holds up even better with peaches that are slightly underripe (save the best ones for snacking). The fillings can be made while the cake bakes and cools or prepared ahead of time, and though it's best served fresh, it will keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
