Sorry for the delay but worth the wait this is exactly the way I made Shenaz recipes Suleman Paradise Island coconut Lychee cake Totally irresistible must try easy to make First of all you need a good sponge and for that I used a basic sponge Step 1: 4 extra large eggs 250 g Castor Sugar ( for this cake i decreased the sugar by 100 grms meaning I put only 150 grms reason being after baking I used canned juices and condensed milk for sweetning) you can make original recipe as it is thought to mention) 280 g cake flour 3tsp baking powder 250 ml milk 100 g butter 5 ml coconut essence Method: Preheat oven to 180ºC. Beat eggs and castor sugar together until thick and creamy. Sift the flour and baking powder together and fold into egg and sugar mixture. Heat milk and butter together, but do not boil. Add vanilla essence. Stir into batter. Spoon into 2 x 22 cm round greased cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes until done. P. S I made double recipe of above https://facebook/photo.php?fbid=890791960944594&set=gm.1758651671027467&type=1 Step 2: Once out of the oven pour the hot coconut and lychee milk sauce Follow the following method : 1. Heat 2 tblsp of butter 2. Add 1 cup of lychee juice ( keep the lychees for deco) 3. Add 1 cup of coconut milk 1 tsp of coconut essence Half can of condensed milk ( please note above I have mentioned i decreased sugar by 100 grms) Im now replacing the sweetness otherwise you can make the cake using the normal sugars which is 250 grms) Bring above to boil keep stirring continuously Off heat whisk in 1 cup of double cream Kinda heavy but worth it Pour this over the warm cake ( prior poke holes with a fork all over be gentle) Leave overnight or at least 2 hrs in the fridge to cool Step 3: Take some whipping cream I used approx 2 boxes which is 2 litres plus 200 ml of double cream I poured this into my mixer with 4 tsp of cream of tartar ( if you dont have use maizena) to stabilise the cream half a packet of icing sugar approx 125 grms you can add more depends slowly mix with a plastic spatula before turning the blender on or you will end up with a snowstorm lol firstly blend on slow medium then high speed thats the trick you will see the cream getting thick and once you do switch off or you will have clarified butter ( ghee) Decorate as you like I used cherries lychees and freshly grated coconut lightly toasted( use a potato grater) finely i sprinkled desiccated coconut all over voila thanks to Farzeen A Kachalia for helping with the final touches
