An Iced VoVo is a wheat flour biscuit topped with a strip of pink fondant on either side of a strip of raspberry jam and sprinkled with coconut.[1] It is a product of the American-owned Australian-based biscuit company Arnott's. Previously known as Iced Vo-Vo biscuits, the brand was first registered in 1906.[1] On 24 November 2007, Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd made a light-hearted mention of Iced VoVos in his election victory speech, jokingly urging his team to have a strong cup of tea with an Iced VoVo before getting to work.[2] This reportedly led to skyrocketing Iced VoVo sales, prompting Arnott's to send a shipping pallet of the biscuits to the Prime Minister's office in Canberra's New Parliament House.[3] A similar product (called Mikado) has been sold in Ireland by Jacob's since 1888. It has pink marshmallow instead of pink fondant.[4] References1. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.arnotts.com.au/our-products/products/fancy-and-fruit.aspx |title= Iced VoVo|accessdate=18 January 2012|publisher=Arnott's}} 2. ^{{cite news |url=http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/news/national/rudd-on-cusp-of-victory/2007/11/24/1195753359808.html |work=Brisbane Times |publisher=Fairfax Media |accessdate=2007-11-25 |title=Rudd claims Labor election win |date=November 24, 2007}} 3. ^Annabel Crabb, 'The Politics of the Archibald Prize', Art After Hours, NSW Art Gallery, 8 May 2008 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.nicecupofteaandasitdown.com/biscuits/previous.php3?item=49|title=Jacob's Mikado|last=|first=|date=12 Feb 2003|website=A Nice Cup of Tea and a Sit Down|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171022235622/http://www.nicecupofteaandasitdown.com/biscuits/previous.php3?item=49|archive-date=23 October 2017|dead-url=no|access-date=23 October 2017}} External links
