Using both desiccated coconut and coconut cream gives a brilliant depth of flavour to this cake – and the lime and coconut buttercream finishes it off lovely.

For this recipe you will need 2 x 20cm/8in sandwich cake tins.

Buyer's guide

Coconut cream is available canned from Asian and Caribbean stores and larger supermarkets.

Other considerations

If you're dairy-intolerant, coconut milk and cream are an excellent alternative to cows' milk in some cooked dishes (provided you like its quite strong coconut flavour).
