No, as far as I know Victoria and her siblings didn't get cakes named after them.
There is the Princess cake, which was named in honor of Astrid (queen of Belgium), Martha (CP of Norway) and Margaretha (princess of Denmark). This cake is often made in bakeries at the time of royal births, and likely were at the time of Vic, CP and Maddie's. The fondant color is changed when it is a prins cake and not princessan cake. The recipe was from a cookbook of a teacher of the three daughters of Prince Carl of Sweden, and was renamed in their honor as they were said to be fans of it.
Be surprised at how many royals of the past have food/sweets named for them.
Even the queen mum had a cake named for her

Queen Alexandra and her husband were popular for food to be named after. Gateau Alexandra is one

So the Swedish men don't feel left out, there is the Gustaf Adolf (the one who died in 1632) cake which is meant to be eaten on his name day in November (I have no idea if anyone still does)
