Happy Easter!
This is the second time I have made this fantabulous strawberry coconut cake from Joy the Baker.
It is full of vanilla, strawberry, and coconut deliciousness, and I plan on eating about 6 slices. Then I’ll wash it down with a slice of bacon since Lent is over. Rejoice!
Mr. How Sweet is still pouting because there is coconut on the cake. He would rather give up steak, spend 6 hours locked in a small cell with me while I ‘analyze life’, or watch Gone With The Wind 8 times before eating coconut.
You can find the recipe here. It is one of my most favorite cakes.
Have a blessed day and enjoy the wonderful signs on new life!

OMG that is the most beautiful cake ever!! Me and my boyfriend are drooling.
Thanks so much, Jill!!! :)
That looks divine! Have a great Easter.
YUMMMM! I was toasting some coconut tonight for cookies and saw strawberries in the fridge and thought, “I need a coconut strawberry something…” And this looks delicious and perfect! Great job!
I will gladly eat any leftovers since Mr. How Sweet won’t help you out!
Wicked cute cake.
This looks amazing! Joy the Baker’s website (well ok, and yours) really make me want to take up baking as a hobby. But if I may paraphrase you, the desire to at least somewhat fit into my clothes keeps me from too many baking adventures…for now…
Looks super tasty. I love coconut (drool). I’ll take Mr. Sweets piece. Enjoy Easter & the bacon ;)
Beautiful!!! Wow!
Happy Easter, Jessica!!!!!!!!!!!
lots of bunny love and blessings to you and Mr Sweet & fam :)

Enjoy your reunion with bacon! Chocolate and I have been making sweet love all day.
Pink and coconut and cake and CAKE! It’s like you got inside my head and created all I think about! Except there is no visible chocolate. Enjoy your bacon- I’m looking forward to the bacon cookie recipe tomorrow!
Yeah, my hubby and your hubby would get along fabulously. Mine hates coconut too. But he WOULD watch Gone With the Wind. Just not 8 times. :-)

I love how you altered the almond butter. I think it’s awesome the way it is, but this would definitely be a nice change!
This is quite possibly the prettiest cake I have ever seen, saved it to my favorites and will definitely make it soon.
