Ingredients
Lamington Wreath
- Barker’s Strawberry Sauce or Stawberry Jam

- ⅓ cup icing mixture
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 punnet strawberries
- 2 x 18 packs lamington fingers

Instructions
Lamington Wreath
- In a chilled mixing bowl, add cream, icing mixture and vanilla. Mix on low speed until combined, then mix on high speed until stiff peaks form.
- Spoon the thickened cream into a piping bag. Snip 2cm off the end of the piping bag. Pipe a ring of cream around a flat plate or serving board. This ring of cream will secure the lamingtons in place.
- Pipe some cream onto 1 face of 1 lamington at a time. Place the lamington on its side into the ring of cream. Continue with each lamington/cream combination, sandwiching them around the edge of the plate until the wreath is complete. Cover and place in the fridge until it is time to serve.
To Serve
- Drizzle the strawberry sauce over the top of the lamington wreath.
- Reserve 2 strawberries and cut in half. Place the halved strawberries cut side up at each quarter.
- Finely dice the remainder of the strawberries and fill the rest of the space in with diced strawberries followed by raspberries, blueberries and mint.
- Serve with extra strawberry sauce , whipped cream and berries if desired.
- Place in the fridge to chill until serving.
