    The recipe looks great but where do you get fresh coconut milk and cream or maybe I should ask how do you make it????

    I was crazy enough to do it the hard way, opening the coconut, etc.. It was a good experience, but I'm not doing that again. :-
    Anyway, the cake is to die for. Not very sweet, and a lot of coconut flavor.

    The cake was a pain to make but worth every hour. I made it for my mom's 50th birthday and everyone loved it. It is one of my all time favorite cakes.

    I was inspired to make this recipe after watching another personality on Food Network make a cake with vanilla cake mix, bagged coconut, tapioca pudding, and blueberries.

    The taste of Alton's cake is soooo worth the effort required!!

    To the reviewer from UT I would suggest Googling "high altitude baking" and adjusting the recipe for her altitude. Good Luck!

    I have made this cake twice and both times it has fallen in the middle, I dont know if it is the altitude or what,but I have been disapointed with it. I used my food scale to weight the ingred. and followed the directions. I will try 1 more time and hope it comes out. Any Suggestions?

    This cake is sooo good...a little time consuming to make and I used canned coconut milk, cream, and water because I did not have enough time...but it still turned out yummy! My dad craves this every once in a while and said he hasn't found one as good as his mother's recipe but when he tried this he thought I had found out his mom's recipe! Worth the work!

    Oh yeah - this is what I'm talking about. Yes, it is a huge pain in the you know what to make but worth it. Fresh coconut beats the bagged stuff any day. Mom used to make this when I was a kid (my favorite birthday cake. Try it with lemon curd with fresh pineapple as a filling and it takes it way over the top.
