Tokyo Lamington, the renowned patisserie known for its innovative twists on the traditional Aussie dessert, is delighted to announce an exciting collaboration with premium French Orange Liqueur, Cointreau, launching in time for World Margarita Day on the 22nd of February. In celebration of one of Australia’s favourite cocktails, the Margarita, Tokyo Lamington has crafted a limited edition collection of margarita-inspired lamingtons.
The Margarita Month lamington collection features three delectable flavours:
- Cointreau Margarita Lamington: Blending vanilla sponge soaked in a margarita, with a lime cream & tequila filling, dipped in white chocolate infused with Cointreau and a lime coconut.
- Cointreau & Strawberry Lamington: Filled with strawberry mousse and orange curd, dipped in white chocolate infused with Cointreau and coated with orange scented coconut.
- Cointreau Chocolate Marshmallow Lamington: Boasting a Cointreau soaked vanilla sponge with chocolate Cointreau mousse filling, dipped in a scrumptious torched marshmallow.
These limited edition lamingtons can be purchased in a three pack for $24. Cointreau, a renowned orange liqueur with a legacy dating back to 1849, is meticulously distilled with a combination of sweet and bitter orange peels. The result is a crystal-clear spirit that adds a unique complexity to cocktails, making it the perfect partner for Tokyo Lamington’s innovative & delicious creations.
Harkening back to the cocktail’s origins, the Margarita was first created in 1948 by Dallas socialite Margarita Sames during a vacation in Acapulco. Mixing her two favourite spirits, Cointreau and tequila, with lime juice, Margarita unknowingly birthed an iconic cocktail that has stood the test of time.
Tokyo Lamington, renowned for its fusion of Australian and Japanese dessert flavours, is thrilled to announce an exclusive collaboration with Cointreau, one of the world’s most iconic liqueurs.
Tokyo Lamington’s Founder and Chef, Eddie Stewart, commented: “We’re always up for a challenge with our collaborations, with Cointreau it was a no-brainer to celebrate Margarita Day. Boozy Lamingtons are always a great combination, trying to replicate all the layers in cocktails and transform them into a cake offers a creative challenge and one we’re excited to share with Sydneysiders and Melbournians.”
This collaboration between Tokyo Lamington and Cointreau promises a mouthwatering celebration of flavour, bringing the essence of Margarita Day to dessert enthusiasts.
