Count Charles Cochrane-Baillie, 2nd Baron Lamington, was Governor of Queensland, Australia, from 1896 to 1901. Some say that the cake, covered in coconuts and chocolate, is like the Earl's hat. It was also said that the Count's cook accidentally dropped the cake into the chocolate and then wrapped it in coconut silk, which was welcomed by the eaters. The third story was that, during Count Remington ' s term of office, a large amount of cake had accumulated in the Council kitchen one day. People split the cake into small pieces, covered it with chocolate, covered it with coconuts and distributed it to parliamentarians. The last of these was the Toowoomba's Harlaxton House, which the chef brought out. The traditional Remington cake is a piece of sponge cake or butter cake, coated with chocolate syrup and covered with coconut silk. Some people also put butter or jam in cakes, New Zealand preferred strawberry-like jam and Australia preferred lemon. In short, the Remington cake is sponge cake with chocolate sauce and coconuts. The water is not easily lost because the cake is wrapped in chocolate. The cake is perfectly integrated with chocolate and coconuts, and it's a wonderful taste dinner。
