Thanks Chelsea a simply beautiful cake- didn't have any pineapple so whizzed up a can of fruit salad instead and added a couple tbsp some malibu rum to coconut milk, a smidge of salt and two teasp cinnamon into the mix - when baked, topped with cream cheese icing lemon juice/passionfruit mix and thread coconut to garnish - very yummy and a hit !!

My Icing is really runny, consistency of condensed milk ??????? What did i do wrong?? I followed the recipe and directions to a tee!!CHELSEA: Hi there, the consistency of the icing can depend on the type of cream cheese you use and the temperature of the ingredients. If you're finding it too runny just add a little more icing sugar until it reaches your desired consistency.
Preheat oven to 180°C bake / 160°C fan bake. Grease a high-sided 20cm round cake tin and line with baking paper.
Sift the Edmonds Self Raising Flour, Edmonds Baking Soda and mixed spice into a large bowl. Stir in the Chelsea Dark Cane Sugar or Chelsea Organic Coconut Sugar and coconut.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, coconut cream and oil together. Add to the flour mixture along with the banana and pineapple. Gently fold in until well combined.
Spoon mixture into prepared tin and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until cake feels firm to touch and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Cool in tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cream Cheese Icing Beat all ingredients (except coconut) with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy. Spread over cake and sprinkle with coconut.
Very nice cake and super easy for the grandkids to help. Wifey reckons she can taste the baking soda so might dissolve next time. thanks chelsea
