Found this beautiful cake recipe in my e-mail this morning, direct from the people at Mr. Food. This is very easy because the cake is already prepared. You could make the cake yourself if you like, but I prefer the easy way! Photo: mrfood.com

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 c sweetened flaked coconut
1 can(s) (8 oz.) pineapple tidbits, drained
1 can(s) (5 oz.) evaporated milk
1/2 c butter
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c macadamia nuts, chopped coarsely
1 prepared angel food cake
12 to 16 stemmed maraschino cherries

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium skillet, toast coconut over medium heat until golden brown, stirring constantly. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  • 2. Place in skillet the pineapple, evaporated milk, butter, and sugar; mix well and bring to a boil. Let boil 5 to 7 minutes, or until thickened, stirring frequently. Add the coconut to the mixture and stir in nuts.
  • 3. Slice the cake in half horizontally and spoon half the pineapple mixture over bottom cake half. Replace cake top and top with remaining pineapple mixture. Garnish with maraschino cherries.
  • 4. Slice and serve, or cover and keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, fresh fruits. This will give your cake the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help the cake rise evenly and prevent it from sinking in the middle.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly and prevent it from sliding off the cake.
  • Be creative with your decorations. You can use fresh fruits, whipped cream, or even candy to decorate your cake.

Conclusion:

Tropical delight cake is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and fluffy texture, sweet and tangy flavor, and colorful decorations, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
