This incredibly fluffy Coconut Soaked Lime Cake<\/strong> is saturated in sweetened coconut milk and topped with a homemade coconut whipped cream. Imagine a cross between a tres leches cake and a poke cake, where it\u2019s not as soaked as tres leches but still achieves the perfect texture! This cake is light and not overly sweet, making it the perfect easy dessert for summer!<\/p>\n

When the warmer weather rolls in, I love making desserts that highlight the light freshness of summer. Using citrus fruits and tropical coconut flavors is a great way to get that summer feel, and I was inspired to make a cake using those flavors with an indulgent texture and taste.<\/p>\n

I came up with a delicious cross between a tres leches cake and a traditional Midwestern poke cake, where it\u2019s not as moist as tres leches but the coconut soak still gives the light and fluffy sponge cake a decadent texture and mouth feel. Even with the soaked cake, it still stays light and refreshing with the help of a creamy coconut whipped cream finish that makes each bite feel like a tropical escape!\u00a0<\/p>\n
