Queen joins cleaner for cake (8,6)

I believe the answer is:

victoria sponge

'cake' is the definition.
(type of cake)

'queen joins cleaner' is the wordplay.
'queen' becomes 'victoria' (Queen Victoria).
'joins' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'cleaner' becomes 'sponge'.
'victoria'+'sponge'='VICTORIA SPONGE'

'for' is the link.

(Another definition for victoria sponge that I've seen is " cake".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
