Sandwich cake is already a term that means the same thing as layer cake. The classic combination of two layers of Victoria sponge with strawberry jam and whipped cream in between is called a Victoria Sandwich. Anyone arguing that a layer cake isn’t a sandwich is just illiterate, not a defender of semantic specificity.
My spouse makes one that way that everyone we know goes wild about. Literally just yellow cake, cooked strawberries, and homemade whipped cream. We’re both baffled by how popular it is, but I guess the Midwest isn’t used to real whipped cream.
I’d say most Americans aren’t used to real whipped cream in general lol. Just the other week, I went to a Harry Potter-themed birthday party for who is essentially my niece and my brother made a British recipe for whipped cream for the butterbeer slushies we made. It was thick as hell and pretty damn good.
The butterbeer was literally cream soda with a small leveled spoonful of butterscotch per can. Then we had a slushie machine then we put it in and it came out perfect.

I’ve never heard of anyone putting jelly/jam on cake and now I want to try it.

One of my favorite cakes is a chocolate traditional cake and frosting but the inner layer is raspberry jam. It’s so good.
Congratulations on your sudden literacy (?).
