The tangy lemon filling between layers of tender white cake. Top it all off with a rich coconut-cream cheese frosting. It’s no wonder some people think that it is one of the best cakes they’ve ever eaten.
Lemon coconut cake is the perfect combination of delicious flavors and a soft texture! Moist and topped with the flaked coconut, this cake is insanely delicious and SOO good!
A soft, spongey cake that is filled with sweet flavors and topped with a kick of lemon is totally my thing! If you love cakes like this as much as I do then go ahead and try this Blueberry Lemon Pound Cake, Black Forest Cake or this incredible Praline Apple Bundt Cake.
