• When cakes come out of the oven, slowly and evenly pour icing over the hot cakes while still in the pan. Place cake pans back in the oven under the broiler to toast the coconut and broil the icing. Watch carefully so they don't burn.
• When coconut is a perfect golden brown, removed cakes from oven again. Let cakes cool 5-10 minutes. Run a butter knife around the edge of the cake pans and turn cakes out onto a cooling rack. Use the cooling rack to flip cake layers onto your cake serving plate - stacked.***
