Jelly Lamingtons Recipe. Super delicious and coconut lamington cake which has a jelly coating on the outside and it taste delicious.
Source WIKI: A lamington is a dessert of Australian origin. It consists of squares of sponge cake coated first in a layer of traditionallychocolate sauce, then in desiccated coconut. Lamingtons are sometimes served as two halves with a layer of cream orstrawberry jam between, and are commonly found in South African and Australasian outlets such as cafes, lunch bars, bakeries, home industries and supermarkets. A raspberry variety is also common in New Zealand, while a lemon variety has been encountered in Australia.
Past few days have been very hectic, i was very busy with mahima’s first birthday. Everything went great and we had a lovely birthday evening. My plan was to set up a sweet table with few baked goodies of mine. I planned 7 to 8 desserts and made everything a day in advance. This is one of the dessert. I had already made classic lamingtons in my blog. This one is a jelly version in which the vanilla cake is coated in jelly mix and rolled in coconut. It was to die for.
