FUN FACT - like the Pavlova , Lamingtons ARE from Australia, - the story that Lamingtons are a New Zealand creation was an April fools day joke played on New Zealanders by The Guardian Australia,,, look it up !
I am not a professional but I just don't see the reason why the baking pan was lined with wax paper, after it was greased with butter and flour. I would appreciate if someone could enlighten me with this. Thank you!
Sorry but I don’t like to say negative stuff but this recipe is not good I’ve made it following your instruction and they turned out terrible and I’ve been baking for 45 years. For example you didn’t say how much boiling water or the amount of cornflower is used. A definite thumbs down in my opinion and I think you really need to review your recipe.
Lynny Freeman agree...best way to coat lamingtons is to pour the icing into another flat tray...put 6 in at a time and just flip over, then lift into coconut! Easier than holding soft cake with a fork!
ME Cruz I have to substitute the plain flour many times as some of the family are gluten free. What I do is substitute cornflour for plain flour, add 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of bicarbonate soda and 2 tablespoons of custard powder. I do reduce the amount of flour by 2 tablespoons to make up for the custard powder. Also, I never use that amount of water...I would use about 1/4 cup. I also whip up the egg whites with the sugar, then add the yolks....gives a much thicker mix and retains the height better.
you've been baking for 45yrs and can't make a sponge cake? something fishy going on here, just make a sponge cake cut into large squares, dip in chocolate icing and cover with desicated coconut

Thank you. Jill Drury
Thanks!
Is it 4 eggs or three
Very neatly and well narrated step by step...Awesome
That looks so good! I’m gonna give it a try very soon!!!
Superb
You don’t need to grease the pan if using parchment baking paper. Much less work to add baking powder.
Perfect. 🌸
The lamington look great, but where's the recipe?
If I want to make lamingtons and use this recipe, how much flour etc... Is needed? 🤪🤔
can you tell me how many grams of flour are used?

Can I use cornflour instead of plain flour and can I use chopped walnuts instead of coconut? And...

Its better to dip it the next day so the cake pieces doesn't break!
why would you grease an flour the pan and then line it with baking paper?
She said it's done so that the crust is not formed .....
@@9092987132 Still don’t need to grease and flour.
@@Lara-ri1lg maybe so...... but that's what the person who is baking thinks so.....

Recipe please! What’s the point of filming a video if no one can make your recipe? 🤦🏻♀️
Lamingtons
Lamingtons are much, much nicer if a buttercake recipe is used as the base.
Блестящий!
I don't like mixed measures, why use grams and cups in the same recipe which can't be found anyway ?
Would have been better to add the recipe, whats the use without it?...
If click on more on the description the recipe is there!
Did she really put her finger in her mouth and then continue to touch the coconut and cake? Where's the hygiene?
I thought the same thing 😂

Instructions without the measurements, what kind of tutorial is this?
