Kitchener bun
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Kitchener bun is similar to the berliner, a German-origin pastry. It is distinguished by a generous cream content. Kitchener buns can typically be found in South Australia. It consists of two halves of sponge cake, filled with jam (usually red and supposedly raspberry) and cream.
Allegedly its name was changed during World War I to honour Lord Kitchener. At that time many small towns in South Australia also changed names from those of German origin. [1]
