The exact date when lamingtons were developed is unknown, but it is certain that they were developed during the time that Charles Wallace Alexander Napier Cochrane-Baillie, also known as Lord Lamington, was Governor of Queensland, Australia. This was from 9 April 1896 to 19 December 1901. Consequently, the lamington was considered 100 years old on 19 December 2001.
The precise history and start of the chocolate and coconut coated sponge cakes known as lamingtons is a little obscure, but would have been sometime during the term in office of Charles Cochrane-Baillie, 2nd Baron Lamington, Governor of Queensland, after whom they were named. He served from 1896 - 1901. They are still as popular as ever.
