i have posted quite a few eggless cakes recipes till now in my blog, but this recipe of eggless coconut cake recipe is unique. unlike other cake recipes, the coconut cake is not just topped with desiccated coconut, but also mixed to the cake batter. hence the flavour is properly and evenly infused to the cake. having said that, some may feel that the cake is heavy and more filling as compared to the other sponge cake. in addition, you may also feel that the cake is less sponge or moist as the coconut may fill the cake pores. hence it can also be served as a snack with a cup of tea which makes it filling.

the coconut cake recipe is not rocket science, yet i would like to share some tips and suggestions to it. firstly, i have used the coconut milk which is apt for this cake recipe. do not use fresh coconut and is not recommended as it contains moisture which may spoil the cake batter. secondly, you can mix and match the toppings with flavour you require or desire. in this recipe, i have used just coconut topping but can be replaced with chocolate frosting or cream cheese frosting. lastly, i have used the plain flour which can be replaced with wheat flour to make it healthy and nutrient.
