Three: Coconut "Wedding" Cake

This is the "wedding" cake I made for Winn and Tom. It was all white and ethereal, coated in big coconut curls! The recipe we're posting is for a 9" two layer cake. I doubled this recipe and baked two 9" layer and two 6" layers. I sandwiched and frosted with a double recipe of Seven Minute Frosting and used about 4 cups of wide coconut flakes.

You can find the unsweetened coconut milk powder in a lot of Asian grocery stores. It's handy for baking or for reconstituting for other recipes calling for coconut milk.
