I recently made my first Victoria Sponge Cake. I think I must have over creamed it as it came out dense in places like the picture showed above but worse. I used an electric hand held whisk first on the lowest speed No1 (which seemed very high to me still) then switched to the highest speed for 2-3 minutes and whisked all the ingredients at the same time together. Please can you advise if this is ok to use and as all the speeds seem fast including the very lowest how should I go about it in future to avoid a dense cake?
