Mango and coconut are ingredients that frequently star in recipes here on Flours and Frostings. I am pretty fond of both , particularly mangoes. Infact , I have paired the two together in my super easy Mango and coconut fool<\/a> recipe . Last week , I whipped up a delicious and healthy (now that\u2019s something not seen often on my blog !) dessert that could even double up as breakfast \u2013 a four ingredient mango coconut chia pudding. You can catch the recipe on my budding YouTube channel by clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But yes , never have I paired them together in cake. I don\u2019t know why not. It is a no brainer really. The flavours go well together . Coconut in some form or other is always there in my South Indian kitchen all year round, and so are mangoes all through the summers. <\/p>\n

This Mango coconut cake has 5 components :<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. My tried and trusted coconut cake<\/li>\n
  2. A super easy mango mousse to fill and frost <\/li>\n
  3. Some toasted coconut for filling and garnish<\/li>\n
  4. Some chopped mango for filling <\/li>\n
  5. A simple soaking syrup (this one is optional)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    \"Mango<\/figure>\n

    Now lets talk about each. My coconut cake<\/a> is light and fluffy and absolutely yum. You can actually eat it on its own , but I do layer it up once in a way like in this Pinacolada cake<\/a>. It is a butter based cake and if you bake it in a 7 inch pan , you can easily slice it into two , or bake it in a 6 inch pan for 3 layers. Which is what I have done here. <\/p>\n

    The mango mousse is a cheat \u2018s mousse actually. Its basically mango whipped cream. Fresh mango puree folded into whipped cream \u2013 so good you \u2018 ll want to lick it off the spatula !<\/p>\n

    The coconut is flaked or grated coconut toasted on a pan real quick. Thats it. You can actually skip this if you want.<\/p>\n

    The soaking syrup is optional \u2013 it really depends on how you like your cakes. I like to use some in this cake \u2013 I like the moist texture . But take it or leave it as you please. The cake can hold its own without it . <\/p>\n

    A cake like this ? Can definitely hold its own. Coconut and mango are a tropical treat and perfect for all your summer celebrations. Or if you are like me , any random summer Sunday .<\/p>\n
