- This Coconut Cake is another winner to serve this Easter. It’s a soft and fluffy cake finished with a blanket of toasted coconut chips, spring cake deliciousness! If we’re making this specifically for easter, we love dressing the top up with those candy coated, chocolate easter eggs, maybe even some marshmallows and other candies to really make this a festive easter cake!
