My son loves lamingtons too. I made a batch some years back but could never get the choc icing as nice as I used to have them in Oz. Still, they were pretty good. These white lamingtons look rather tasty too although I would vote for the Chocolate Lammies anyday!Dharmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12509907139098039768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2904224777464805669.post-74103778823067120272010-01-26T08:36:13.135+11:002010-01-26T08:36:13.135+11:00Hi Dragon, I'll look out for your lamingtons -...Hi Dragon, I'll look out for your lamingtons - I am lovin' this event.<br /><br />Thanks Bren!<br /><br />Hi HH, you can buy them at the Australia shop - but they are really, really easy to make, and I know that homemade would taste better.<br /><br />Hi Crusader, I agree - coconut makes things look pretty and gives them such a wonderful smell.<br /><br />Thanks Astheroshe.<br /><br />Hi Johanna, yes, a lemon myrtle jelly would have been perfect and in keeping with the theme - unfortunately I could not find such a thing :(<br /><br />Thanks Val!<br /><br />LOL Duckie!Cakelawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17205068748520541380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2904224777464805669.post-20425403832717009182010-01-26T06:26:41.839+11:002010-01-26T06:26:41.839+11:00I am so intrigued...I am so intrigued...The Blonde Duckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00085499120024055465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2904224777464805669.post-42020395259018950282010-01-26T02:26:31.222+11:002010-01-26T02:26:31.222+11:00Anoter fabulous Australian classic.
