A sponge with a raspberry jam centre, covered with a raspberry soak and desiccated coconut, the lamington is a real classic Kiwi treat. I’ve tried to add my touch to it by turning it into a petit gâteau while still focusing on the raspberry and coconut flavours. The white desiccated coconut on the outside of the gâteau looks beautiful, but you can also toast it for a golden-brown colour and flavour if you prefer.
