Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Delicious! Added 1tspn coconut extract and a bit more cardamom due to comments here. Flavour was exceptional. Also mixed 200g raspberries with 1/3 cream icing (as per recipe) for middle of the two cakes. Coconut flake topping and extra raspberries for the top. Don’t forget the flakes!!!!

    One of the most delicious coconut cakes I've made.

    Good but not great. I liked how light it was overall but thought the whole thing could have used more coconut flavor. The only actual coconut comes from the coconut flakes in the topping and a little coconut milk in the sponge. The topping though is exceptional as a snack or on yogurt etc and we actually preferred eating it that way.

    Simply amazing. I did the two tier version.

    Dream cake is no word of a lie! The cake is delicious with a beautiful texture. Neither the coconut or the cardamom is overwhelming (could have taken a touch more). It’s the topping that makes this amazing.
