My mother, and her mothers before her, made a coconut cake every Easter, and since they’ve both passed I’ve been searching for the recipe. This sounds just like I remember. Thank you so very much for posting it online…I will make it for this Easter!!

Hi Mara. Can’t say for sure if we are related as we’re from further North, but I hope you find your family recipe.

I’ve been trying to track down a copy of my Great Granny Naron’s coconut cake recipe, and I wondered if you might be related?! It was the McClure comment, my mother’s first cousin is a Raymond McClure in Mississippi. Unfortunately, I don’t know everyone’s names on that side, and I don’t know all that much about the Naron’s or McClures. Just wondering. And still searching for that coconut cake recipe.

Beautiful! I suspect that it was worth it, even if it took two days to make. It’s crazy to me that they had coconut cakes back then– I guess coconut just preserves so well even with all the poor transport.

Oh my gosh! I’ve been looking for this recipe and I think this is the one my mom used to make. Boiled icing with coconut on top! I can’t wait to try it. I took one look at the photo and I could just taste it all over again. Thank you so much for posting this recipe, my childhood memories of this cake are about to be shared with my family.
