Yes. Squares of sponge cake covered with chocolate sauce and rolled in desiccated coconut

I flunk. I'll have to stay an American. I've heard of Jillaroo but I don't know what it means or is.

Akubra - a very large-size bra.
XXXX - a movie so dirty, it can't be shown.
The only time I've heard "ute" is when someone is describing an SUV & says,"This is a nice "Sport Ute."
Accadacca - What an intoxicated magician said during a magic trick.

A ute is an ugly pickup truck looking thing you have there. I'm sorry, I don't have anything good to say about it.

 

[PamfromTx]

Lamington is a delicious (supposedly, mine were a total mess) sponge cake cut up in squares.

 

[Bretrick]

Seems like y'all need help.
I was listening to accadacca while wearing my akubra drinking XXXX and sitting under the hills hoist.
When an ocker jillaro turned up in her ute. She said the yabbies she had would go better with a XXXX than an iced vovo or lamington.

Really, I wonder what year you were looking at. They may not be as big as the Chevy Ute, but hardly as you describe them. A very useful vehicle here. And they look good.
