This is one of my mums old recipes, and I made it again today, and it reminded me of how good it was, so I decided to share it with you guys! It is nice and moist, with lemony coconut flavour. Not too sweet. Beautiful with tea, or for dessert on its own or with light whipped cream. Read more (It's very moist due to the sour cream used in the actual cake - lovely!) See less
