Indulge in a delightful journey of flavors with our Coconut Meringue Roulade, where delicate layers of coconut meringue embrace a luscious filling of zesty lemon curd, velvety cream, and vibrant raspberries. This elegant dessert combines the tropical charm of coconut with the refreshing tang of lemon, creating a symphony of textures and flavors that will tantalize your taste buds.
The roulade boasts a light and airy meringue base, achieved by skillfully whipping egg whites and sugar until stiff peaks form. This meringue is then carefully spread onto a baking sheet and baked until it reaches a delicate golden hue. Once cooled, the meringue is meticulously rolled up, encasing the luscious filling within.
The lemon curd, a key component of this roulade, offers a burst of citrusy brightness that perfectly complements the sweetness of the meringue. Made with fresh lemon juice, butter, sugar, and eggs, this curd is cooked until it reaches a thick and creamy consistency.
To further enhance the roulade's flavor profile, a layer of velvety cream is spread onto the meringue before the lemon curd. This cream adds a rich and decadent touch, creating a harmonious balance of flavors and textures.
Finally, the roulade is adorned with an array of fresh raspberries, adding a vibrant pop of color and a delightful burst of sweetness. These raspberries not only enhance the roulade's visual appeal but also provide a delightful textural contrast to the smooth meringue and creamy filling.
With its combination of delicate meringue, tangy lemon curd, velvety cream, and fresh raspberries, this Coconut Meringue Roulade is a true masterpiece that will impress even the most discerning palate.
COCONUT CREAM MERINGUE PIE
This is a pie that was created for our daughter's birthday. She loved her grandmother's coconut cream pie. We did not have the exact recipe so we came up with this. It could take up to 30 minutes for the custard to get thick and come to a boil.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Stir half-and-half, coconut milk, eggs, 3/4 cup sugar, cornstarch, and salt together in a saucepan; stirring constantly, slowly bring to a boil over low heat and cook until thick, about 30 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat; fold 3/4 cup coconut into the mixture with the vanilla extract. Pour the coconut mixture into the baked pie crust.
- Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until foamy. Gradually add cream of tartar and 6 tablespoons white sugar, continuing to beat until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. Spread egg white mixture over the pie. Sprinkle 1/2 cup coconut over the pie.
- Bake in preheated oven until the top is golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Move to a wire rack to cool until completely cooled to the touch, about 1 hour. Refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving.

LEMON COCONUT ROULADE
I love this filling because it's a great lemon curd recipe that even made even better by lightening it. This is a perfect lunch dessert or for a baby or bridal shower. Mom would love this on her birthday too. At least mine would have. The cake is a classic French Biscuit au Beurre, drizzling in the clarified butter at the end for a unique delicious flavor. You can candy your own edible flowers rather than buying them if you like. Johnny Jump Ups, pansies, and rose petals are nice.

Steps:
- Make the Lemon Curd: Pour enough water into a saucepan to reach a depth of 2 inches and bring to a boil.
- In a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or using a hand mixer), whip the eggs and sugar together until very light yellow and fluffy. Mix in the lemon juice and lemon zest. Rest the mixing bowl on the saucepan, with the bowl's base resting above ¿ not in ¿ the simmering water (pour out some water, if necessary). Cook, whisking occasionally, until the mixture is thickened and custard-y, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, half fill a large bowl with ice and cover with cold water. Remove the bowl of lemon curd from the hot water and whisk in the butter until melted. Rest the bottom of the bowl in the ice bath and let cool, folding the mixture occasionally to cool and thicken it.
- In a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or using a hand mixer), whip the cream until stiff. Fold it into the cooled lemon custard. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. (The recipe can be made to this point and kept refrigerated up to 3 days in advance.)
- Make the Cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Butter the jelly roll pan and line it with parchment paper. Butter the paper to assure release. Have some water simmering in a saucepan. Place the eggs, yolk, sugar, and vanilla in the bowl of a standing mixer (don't attach it to the mixer yet) and whisk briefly. Set the bowl over the simmering water and stir the mixture until warm and sugar looks dissolved. Attach the bowl to the mixer and whip until light and fluffy, about 6 minutes.
- Meanwhile, sift together the flour and baking powder 3 times. Sift it over the whipped egg mixture while folding it in; then fold in the coconut. Drizzle in the clarified butter, while folding the batter.
- Immediately pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake until lightly browned and starting to pull away from the edges of the pan, about 14 to 16 minutes. Let the cake rest in the pan 1 minute. Run a knife along the edge to release the cake; then flip it out onto a tea towel or parchment paper. Brush the paper lining with water and let soak 2 minutes before peeling it off the cake. Trim dry edges from the cake. Roll the cake up tightly with the towel, rolling away from you; then cool seam-side down on a rack. Carefully unroll the cake and spread it with a thin layer of jam, followed by the lemon curd filling, leaving 1/2 inch empty at the far edge. Tightly re-roll the cake and place on a platter seam-side down. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
- Whip the remaining 1/2 cup cream with the sugar until very stiff. Keep chilled. Using a pastry bag fitted with a star tip, pipe the whipped cream into rosettes down the center of the roulade. Place a candied violet on each rosette. Serve in 1-inch thick slices.
