4. This looks good...

there is also a cake from a Food Network challenge... a contestant baked a cake she called Put the Lime in the Coconut Cake. It is divine...

A bit more complicated than this cake but heavenly... the cake batter is the smoothest I have ever made and the icing is delicious.

6. That glaze sounds dreamy and preferable to the one I posted however I

really like the dessicated coconut on the telegraph recipe. I suppose this means that I will have to bite the bullet and try both. Oh the inhumanity.

8. LOL....

I feel for you... it's a hard thing to do but you just might have to try both.

I have made the recipe I posted numerous times and it makes an impressive looking cake and I got rave reviews for it.

Hope you enjoy which ever one you choose... nothing better than lime and coconut!

5. Looks yummy, but what is "dessicated coconut"?

I've never seen or heard of that. I can get sweetened, or unsweetened coconut. Both are slightly dryer than they would be from a fresh coconut, but are still soft.

7. Dessicated coconut comes in a brick and is rather dry. What you describe

sounds like dessicated coconut.
