So yeah decided it had been a while since I made a cake so I made one:

what you need for the cake base:

175g soft butter
175g caster sugar
175g self raising flour
1 1/2 tbsp baking powder
3 eggs
50g dessicated coconut
2 tbsp coconut cream

you just mix these all up and put the dessicated coconut last. a food processor can do it in 3 mins. then split the mixture into two baking cake trays and put in the over at gas mark 4 for about 25 mins.

for the butter cream:

280g icing sugar
100g soft butter
3 tbsp coconut cream
raspberry jam
1 bar of white choclate

mix all the ingredients together except the raspberry jam & white chocolate and apply to the cake top and middle also add raspberry jam to the middle. as for the top of the cake grate the white chocolate on top of the cake I also added crushed hazlenuts on top.

enjoy!

GTFO

 

[BlueSteel]

Gross, coconut.

Get out.

That looks really good. As in, even though I have the stomach flu and eating that would probably wreck my digestive system, I'd still eat it good.

Coconut and Pineapple ruin things.

This is objectively incorrect.

[Baggatoast]

I love coconut but can't help but think I'm eating fingernails the entire time.

 

[Chichikov]

Gross, coconut.

Agreed.

I agree with him, and the rest of the coconut haters.

You know what?
Fuck this place.
Mods have their heads so deep up their assess it's infuriating.
You say something slightly racist or homophobic and you get banned, but people are allowed to badmouth coconut with impunity?

 

[GK86]

Gross, coconut.

I agree with him, and the rest of the coconut haters.

 

[Kusagari]

That cake looks disgusting. Coconut is an abomination.

 

[Red]

This thread made me go back and check an old post of mine. I'm sad to see most of the picture links have gone down.

 

[noah111]

Are you sure that stuff on top isn't crumbled up popcorn? Because that's seriously what it looks like.

Oh and: coconut = yuck.

 

[MidnightScott]

I don't really like coconut but I tolerate it when I make my dad german chocolate cake for his birthday. However, I just use a box mix.

The only thing I make is French toast on a griddle, and homemade cookies using an old crisco recipe we found in one of my grandmas cookbooks. It's been a while since I made them though, it's hard work lol.

 

[Vandiger]

Coconut on a cake, garbage.

 

[bggrthnjsus]

What's the occasion? Cakes need a reason for being.

cakes just ARE

 

[Ties]

m(_ _m)
I can't with raw coconut.

I love it with chocolate though, it balances the sweetness nicely.

 

[Futureman]

Not gonna lie. Looks like a Big Mac cake.

 

[gurasa]

Not a fan of coconut but good job, OP.

 

[Marvelous]

Gross, coconut.

Heh, I'm not a fan of coconut, either.
But good job on baking the cake, Mr. Orange.

 

[MRORANGE]

not sure on the coconut hate, is it the texture or the flavour?

 

[Tashi]

How do you make cake batter? I like to make Duncan Hines cakes and shit but I've always wanted to make cake from scratch

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Coconut on cake should be a war crime.

 

[MacAttack]

not sure on the coconut hate, is it the texture or the flavour?

I can't get past the texture enough to enjoy the flavor. Even though I hate coconut, the cake looks delicious.

 

[LOZLINK]

Was this made in celebration than King Jong un is not dead?

 

[ReConstructDead]

First it was the hate towards olives and mushrooms on pizzas, not it's hate towards coconuts on cake
What's next?!

 

[BY2K]

People that hates coconut?

First it was the hate towards olives and mushrooms on pizzas, not it's hate towards coconuts on cake
What's next?!

How can this be!?

*faint*

 

[Marvelous]

not sure on the coconut hate, is it the texture or the flavour?

I don't like the texture or the flavor.

 

[BlueTsunami]

Pineapple only pairs well with ham. Also coconut shaving on cake is the best, adds interesting texture and it has a great sweet earthy flavor.

 

[My Sedatives]

JOSH FREEMAN WANT CAKE.

 

[MRORANGE]

Keep making cakes I guess, although experimentation goes a long way.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Coconut on cake should be a war crime.

I totally agree.

 

[Verelios]

Not gonna lie. Looks like a Big Mac cake.

What is a Big Mac cake exactly?

 

[The Omega Man]

Paging Kotaku right now, an article about this should bring Kotaku to its former glory

 

[Burli]

WEIRD, I didn't like coconut and pineapple too. Are they paired in dislike? I enjoy them both now though.

 

[BlueTsunami]

The worst fucking combination is pineapple cake. Its either mushy and bitter or the pineapple are dry pellets.
