Good morning everyone. See this gorgeous coconut lime cake, with a drippy frostingand lime wedges on top? Well, it turns out my friend Lora of Savoring Italy is taking a vacation in Italy with her family, and while she soaks up the sun and eats all that wonderful pasta , I’m guest posting over at her place with this cake.
She and I became fast friends through our love of baked things, the Twelve Loaves baking group she came up with. Remember the cinnamon sugar challah and macadamia coconut buns? That’s the group I’m referring to. We like to share what comes out of our
kitchen, so I think this coconut lime cake was perfect for her blog. And that frosting! With little pieces of fresh lime bursting with every bite.
Go over to Cake Duchess and check the post and the recipe. Say Hi to Lora, and, if you stay for a while you will bump into incredible concoctions like orange crunch cake, walnut kalacs and chocolate banana blondies. Amazing huh?

Cocoa and Lavender says
June 22, 2013 at 14:42I didn't wait – it was fabulous! It reminded me of the old Harry Nilssen recording that had the line… "You put the lime in the coconut and drink it all up." Lime and coconut are the perfect pairing!
