I was introduced to Lamington Cakes when I was in Australia and when back in Singapore I was keeping a lookout for this cake.
Lamington Cakes originated from Australia and it is very common in Australia.
Lamington Cakes has two thick slices of sponge cake, either vanilla or chocolate, sandwiched with either cream or jam and the cake is coated chocolate and next with dessicated coconut. The sponge cake these days come in many variants such as strawberry and orange cakes. Maybe soon there will be local version of lamington cakes such as with pandan sponge or with durian mousse.
