Why is pineapple lumps a New Zealand icon?

BecauseThe first Pineapple Lumps were made by the Regina confectionery factory (now called Rainbow factory [1]) in Oamaru around [2] 1952-54. Charles Diver, the confectionery chef and floor production manager at Regina, who would later create other classic kiwi sweets, was given the task of using up waste product from other lollies of the time. One sweet in particular, an early version of the chocolate fish with a banana flavoured marshmallow middle, had the most left overs.Pineapple Lumps are currently made by Pascall and typically come in 140g and 300g size packs. Pineapple Lumps were originally called Pineapple Chunks but the name was changed in the early 1960's for want of something a little more unique and original.Pineapple Lumps are a flavored chocolate covered candy with a soft, chewy pineapple-flavoured middle that are unique to New Zealand. They are often identified as Kiwiana. The semi-brittle shell of chocolate conceals a delightfully chewy, soft pineapple flavoured centre.


Why is hangi and pavlova the traditional dish for New Zealand?

I dunno about Hangi but Pavlova was invented by a lady called Anna Pavlova, and she was a Kiwi. However, today is is a bit of a debate about whether or not it is actually a traditional New Zealand dish, as it is commonly regarded as Australian food. Hope this helps (:


What is considered to be a New Zealand dessert?

Pies, Fish 'n' chips, Pavlova, Marmite on toast, Kiwifruit, Huhu grubs, ANZAC biscuits, Roast lamb and roast veges, Hokey Pokey ice-cream, Hangi food, Banana samwhiches, Venison, Paua, Bluff Oysters, Tamarillo, Avocado on toast, Kumara, Mussels, Pipis, Scallops, Crayfish Drinks: Lemon & Paeroa Wine


Why is marmite an NZ icon?

Pavlova is a meringue dessert claimed by both New Zealand and Australia. The dish is said to have been named after Anna Pavlova, a Russian ballet dancer, who was on tour in 1926 and 1929. Anna Pavlova was a famous ballerina and her dances are best described as light and airy, similar to the dessert.Research indicates that the pavlova was originally from New Zealand. The Australian claim is that it was invented by a Perth chef in 1935; New Zealand claims are based on a recipes in a magazine and a cookery book from 1929 and 1933, with additional reports from a biographer stating that it was invented in 1926 after Anna Pavlova's visit. It was after this that the pavlova began to gain more prominence in New Zealand (and Australia) with the competition to claim the dessert heating up in the ensuing decades.Rivalry between the two countries regarding the origin of the pavlova has continued for decades - and will probably continue for many more. The article at the link below concedes that the dessert now known as the pavlova most likely originated in New Zealand, but that the actual name of Pavlova, after Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova, was bestowed upon it by a Perth chef.


Is New Zealand the one that made the word pavlova?

The dessert Pavlova was named after a Russian Ballet dancer Anna Pavlova who visited Australia and New Zealand in the 1920s. There is confusion and argument over whether the dessert is originally from Australia or New Zealand. It was a tradition to name desserts after famous opera or ballet stars. A version of the dessert was named after Anna Pavlova in both Wellington NZ, Perth Australia and Melbourne Australia but desserts made from Meringue filled with fruit and cream were around for a long time in both countries (and elsewhere) before that. So it is unlikely that there will ever be a proven answer to this question.

What do you do with paw paw?

The paw-paw is a fruit. It can be eaten on its own, but it does not have a strong flavour. It is best served in a fruit salad with a mixture of sweeter fruits such as mango and pineapple, or it makes an excellent addition to pavlova.
