Thank you for adding the recipe box to your website. I hope this is new, but then again, I haven’t checked this email addresss in a while, too busy. But again thanks.

I’ve made a recipe very much like this for a while now and I think it would be great as a bowl cake. I usually do a 9×13 cake, but I’ve also made cupcakes and used this icing. It’s so versatile… and delicious! (oh and i use either Ideal Sweetener or Splenda instead of sugar)

I’ve made this cake several times. Its FANTASTIC. The hardest part is leaving it alone in the fridge. The wait is definitely worth it though.

just made this, It was wonderful, I will say though, its Much, much better after sitting in the fridge for 2 days, although it got ate before then in my house, after 2 days there was still plenty left and my goodness, much better after sitting a few days.

Dot, I’m diabetic too. I used Pillbury sugar free cake mix for this recipe & also used 1 c. sugar & 1 c. Splenda for the icing, It turned out great. I also made the cake in 2 8×8 inch pans. I gave one cake to my daughter so she & her family can enjoy it too. Next time I make this cake, I’ll try using all Splenda for the icing & if I make it for church dinner I may do a bowl cake. I hope this helps you. Good luck, Sheila

Someone asked above about using Splenda instead of sugar in the frosting, and I just wanted to mention that I did and it worked very well. My frosting was on the thick side (not wet-looking like Christy’s) but after less than 24 hours in the fridge, the cake (2 boxes of Jiffy yellow cake mix) was surprisingly moist. I didn’t think it would be because I didn’t use the sugar. Because I have to limit sugar, I would make it this way for myself again. This is one incredible coconut cake!
