This is your classic NZ raspberry jelly lamington - soft white sponge with a red jelly coating for the fine desiccated coconut to stick to. Additionally this lamington was cut on the diagonal (as it should be:-)) and had a whooping amount of fresh whipped cream piped into it. Sadly (and maybe because this was a raspberry variant they didn't feel like they needed it) there was no dot of red jam in the middle of the cream - when there is cream, there should always be jam (according to Lamington Ledger Law (LLL)).
A good example of the classic, although I think the plate may have been a bit warm which meant some of the bottom jelly was a bit runny, cue sticky fingers.

It looks gross - though I'm not really a lamington fan - this exemplifies all that I dislike in a sponge/jam treat...
