Orange Coconut Cake

When I saw this adorable cake at Sweet Tea and Cornbread, I knew it would be perfect for Easter. Orange and

coconut go really well together in this delicious and pretty layer cake. My special tool for layer cakes is to use a

cake leveler. It’s easy to use and creates a nice, flat surface on which to build your layers.
