Thank You for reading/writing on my very delicious "COCONUT CAKE." Glad you enjoyed this fun write. My aunt made the best one for Easter. I started putting jelly bears around it for color. It is easy to make. She made her cake from scratch but I use a box. She did white cake. My box mix has been white or yellow. Her white icing was home made. My white icing is can or box. Take a bag of coconut and cover the cake with it. If you do layers then add some coconut here. Nothing like the fresh sweetness of coconuts but for this I use a bag. It is easier/faster. Let me know it you try it. It is heavenly... Have a Beautiful/Blessed Day with a slice of COCONUT CAKE as you go writing away.............
