Is this suitable for putting in a Victoria sandwich?

Couldn't be any easier. I made my own buttermilk, thanks to your assistance ❣️

This will be a great help to new cooks who experience that oh-no feeling when they realize the recipe calls for buttermilk and they never have it on hand.  So easy to make and use. I have even had good results from just throwing in a Tbsp. of vinegar along with whole milk in my baked goods. If you ever make Greek yogurt be sure to keep the liquid drained from the yogurt and use it in the same way.
