Louise cake

A Louise cake or Louise slice is a baked New Zealand sweet dish that consists of raspberry jam and coconut-flavoured meringue on a shortbread base. The confection's name may refer to the 1871 wedding of Princess Louise. It has been suggested that the cake was created to celebrate the wedding of Princess Louise in 1871. A recipe for Louise cake was shared in the Otago Witness newspaper in October 1927.
