Fruity Lamingtons

Lamingtons are a delicious Australian treat consisting of a cube of vanilla cake, dipped in a chocolate glaze, and rolled in coconut. Why Limit ourselves to just chocolate and vanilla though, when there could be so many delicious flavour combinations? Fruity Lamingtons are so delicious and work well in any fruit flavours!

For this recipe, I used a 500g bag of our Easy bake Vanilla Genoise cake mix, and half a packet of Strawberry Milkshake Flavour shot to make a delicious strawberry flavoured sponge, but there are so many flavour options! Take a look at our range of Flavour Shots and Natural Flavoured Icing Sugar!

Ingredients

Method for sponge

Method for coating

1. Prepare a baking sheet with grease proof paper.
2. Mix the Natural Flavoured Icing Sugar with the boiling water. If you would like a colour glaze I recommend adding Colour Pop Water Activated colours to the water before combining with the sugar.
3. Add the milk and butter and mix until you have a lovely smooth glaze. If you prefer a thicker glaze, you can add more Natural flavoured Icing Sugar.
4. Pour a layer of desiccated coconut onto a plate for rolling.
5. Dip your chilled sponge pieces into the glaze, making sure you have a good coating. the glaze should be loose enough to soak into the sponge a little.
6. Immediately roll the dipped sponge pieces in the coconut then set on the prepared baking sheet.
7. Chill for around an hour before enjoying your Fruity Lamingtons!
