Tokyo Lamington at Bankstown Sports Club

The ingeniously creative cubed cakes with a cult following have popped up in South West Sydney.

Overview

While the Aussies and the Kiwis duked it out for bragging rights over the invention of a humble chocolate-coated coconut-covered cake, the team at Tokyo Lamington quietly entered the chat and threw Japan into the mix. Sure, they weren't claiming to have created the nostalgic Antipodean dessert but they've certainly been responsible for redefining it — adding creative flourishes like Yuzu Meringue and Matcha Strawberry (and later Pumpkin, Banofee and even Fairy Bread Popcorn).

Today, almost three years after their non-traditional flavours first popped up Down Under (and following an appearance on Masterchef Australia) Tokyo Lamington are taking their square-shaped specialities a little further west with a temporary Tokyo Lamington at Bankstown Sports Club store.

Just like the treats themselves, this pop up promises to be short but seriously sweet — with half a dozen and full dozen boxes available for a limited time from Friday to Sunday, 11am-2pm (for $46 and $90, respectively). And, if anything from previous partnerships is an indication, we suspect that lamington-lovers will snap them up quickly, so we suggest heading over sooner rather than later.
