A square of sponge cake dipped in chocolate icing and rolled in desiccated coconut. A reliable Sydney pick. Recommended by TableJourney editors.
The lamington is widely credited to Queensland Premier Lord Lamington's household in the 1890s, but Sydney's CWA halls and church fetes built the modern recipe. By the 1920s it was standard across NSW bakeries and a staple of school fundraising days. Pierre Roelofs (Cumulus alumnus) and Black Star Pastry have run modern Sydney revivals; the simple sponge-cake square remains the country's most-recognised baked good.
