Lamington… Chocolate and Coconut covered Yellow Cake<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Here’s what wikipedia says about lamingtons<\/a>. And, here’s a nice post from David Lebovitz about lamingtons<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We thought that the cake looked very dry when we saw the interior, as a pleasant surprise, it wasn’t dry. It was a dense sponge cake with a large crumb (unlike a good pound cake which has a very fine crumb).<\/p>\n

The chocolate coating was good and the coconut was a good quality (it was moist and flavorful).<\/p>\n

We tried both of the Australian wines (Merlot and Riesling) with the lamington… the Merlot was better (probably because of the chocolate) than the Riesling.<\/p>\n

On our scale of 1-10 (1=never ever again and 10=gotta have this 2 or 3 more times) – nora gave it a 7 and nick gave it a 5, average score 6\/10. While this was quite good, we don’t often eat sweets and this is pretty much a calorie bomb for the size of the portion.<\/p>\n

Here’s a recipe that nora found quite a while back. We haven’t tested it yet, so if you’d like to give it a try, please let us know how it comes out…\u00a0Lamingtons<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
