Coconut Cake of Hawaii

I first had this cake at the Halekulani Hotel in Waikiki.  Wow, it was fresh and light and luscious.  It was our wedding anniversary, which made it even more special.  Apparently it has been the signature cake at the hotel for years.  I don't make the cake from scratch, I just use a pre-made sponge cake, usually from Woolworths.

COCONUT Cake


Method:

Take a pre-made sponge and cut into 3 layers.
Whip aprox 3 cups of cream to soft peaks,  add coconut essence and icing sugar to taste.
Layer cake with some of the cream, then ice the cake with the rest of the cream.
Sprinke with coconut flakes.
