This was my grandma's absolute favorite cake! Now I understand why.

This coconut and raspberry layer cake is a delightful treat that brings a touch of tropical flair to the Midwest. Inspired by my love for both coconut and fresh berries, this cake is perfect for special occasions or simply as a weekend indulgence. The combination of the moist coconut cake with the tartness of raspberries creates a harmonious balance that's sure to impress your family and friends. Plus, it's a great way to use up those raspberries from the farmer's market!
This cake pairs beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of freshly whipped cream. For a refreshing contrast, serve it alongside a simple green salad with a light vinaigrette. If you're hosting a gathering, consider offering a selection of teas or a chilled glass of prosecco to complement the cake's flavors.
