I'm searching for a coconut cake that was printed in Chocolatier magazine about 20 years ago. The cake was baked in a 10 inch pan.
I can't remember if it was 2 layers or 3. It used coconut milk in both the cake and the frosting. The cake also had coconut in the cake batter.
I was surprised to find this cake in a chocolate magazine. I think it was in an article about a ship's cruise. maybe not.
I only made it once before I lost the recipe. I have contacted chocolatier magazine when it was still published and they didn't know what I was talking about.
Since then, believing that I would get someone different to research it i tried again. This time i was referred to Godiver i think data base.
Obviously, I was not successful. Can you help?
Thank you in advance,

Hello Ellie,
Sorry, I was not successful in locating a recipe for coconut cake from Chocolatier Magazine with coconut milk in the cake and in the frosting.

Thanks, but even though it was in Chocolatier magazine, it was one of the first recipes that did not have chocolate in it.

Thank you for considering my email. I have searched the Internet looking for this recipe, but to no avail.
I came across your site in my adventure and noticed that there were very knowledgeable people and past employees who may be able to help.
I have been a fan of this coleslaw and have found some close, but non exact. Would you happen to have this recipe or could you reach out
and possibly find it through one of your contacts? Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Deb,
I had no success finding this. Let me e-mail a couple of people that I know. Give it a week or so.
If they don’t respond or don’t have the recipe, I’ll post it on my site.

Sorry this took so long but my mind isn't what it once was. All I can remember is it had mayonnaise, dill pickle juice, sugar, and cabbage.
The pickle juice may have been that from the relish we had on hand. It wasn't the sweet relish but the sour kind. Can't remember the proportions.
I went on the web sites to see if I could find it but no luck.

Does anyone have the recipe for the chocolate frosting that Judice's bakery used to put on their pound cakes?
I am 64 years old and have never forgotten how delicious it was. Judice's was located on N. Claiborn and Frenchman in New Orleans.
Hello Lani,
Sorry, no luck. I cannot find any recipes from Judice’s at all. It appears that they became Gambino’s Bakery in the 1970s.

Subject: duncan hines cherry cake
I am looking for a back of the box recipe for a duncan hines cherry cake. it was in the mid 70's, i think.
I tried duncan hines, but they have no idea.
This cake used white cake mix and a can of pie ready cherries. i think you mixed it in the pan.
It is not the dump cake. I don't remember much more about it, except it was easy to make and fast.
Hope you can help,
Thanks,
ellie
Hello Ellie,
Let’s see.....
There is no recipe like that on the Duncan Hines site, and I had no success in finding a cherry cake recipe that called for
Duncan Hines white cake mix by brand. When people post recipes on the web, they often omit any brand names.
There are any number of cherry cake recipes on the web that call for simply “white cake mix” and “cherry pie filling.”
See below for several. This is the best I can do without more details about the recipe.
Phaed
Cherry Cake
1 can cherry pie filling
1 stick butter
1 pkg. white cake mix
Place pie filling in 8 inch square baking dish. Prepare cake mix as directed on box then pour mix over pie filling.
Cut butter in thin slices over cake mix. Bake at 375 degrees for 35-40 minutes.
---------------------------------------
Cherry Loaf Cake
2 eggs
1 pkg. white cake mix
1 can cherry pie filling
Beat eggs only until blended, then add the cake mix (dry) and about 1/3 of the can of cherry pie filling.
Mix on low speed until ingredients are moistened, then beat on medium to high for 1 minute or until batter appears smooth.
Remove beater and stir in remaining pie filling. Fold over and over until evenly mixed. Turn into 9x13 inch baking pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes or until cake tests done.
Glaze:
Add 2 tbsp. hot water to 1 cup powdered sugar. Add flavoring if desired. Apply this glaze while the cake is still slightly warm.
This cake is more moist the second or even third day.
-------------------------------------
Cherry Summer Cake
1 box white cake mix
1 can cherry pie filling
3 egg whites
1/3 c. oil
1 1/4 c. water

Pour cherry filling on top. Bake 40 to 45 minutes at 350 degrees. Test for doneness with toothpick. While this attractive dessert is
delicious you can try a variety of pie filling of your choice. You can add Cool Whip on top.
---------------------------------------
