Feijoa and Coconut Cake

Sounds delightful and will certainly try it out.

Maureen

yum sounds great will bake this tomorrow with my feijoa cupcakes!

michelle

This is very similar to a Fejoia cake I make. All ingredients the same except instead of coconut and almonds, I put in the same amount of cut up fejoias plus 2 x large raw apples chopped roughly, plus a teaspoon of mixed spice. Makes quite a large cake and can be used as a pudding also. Cheers. Enjoy.

Ruth

Will make it for expected visitors tonight. Thank you :-)

Anna

SCRUMMY BUMMY. I've made Feijoa and Coconut cake before, but never with the topping variation - the almonds and sugar. This makes what was a yummy cake into a SCRUMMY BUMMY cake!

Kim

I have cooked this twice in the last week. A cake thats worth making. One comment was that it looks and tastes like a proper cake one you would get from Moore Wilson! The first time I cooked it the middle was a little under cooked even though the skewer came out clean, so cooked the second a further 20mins and put a thin knife through the middle to test and it was perfect and very very yummy. A real crowd pleaser. Good way to use feijoa surplus esp the small ones from your tree :o)

Rosina P

Tried and tested, very nice recipe

Teresa

jenna

Hi, could the recipe be prepared with stevia or xylitol for diabetics? Cheers

vessie

Hi Vessie, we haven't tried it with either of these products but you could definitely try it. We would love to hear how you get on if you do try it! Thanks, Jenna - Tui Team

jenna

Friend of mine baked this and I tried it. it was so yummy, trying it tomorrow myself.

Nikki

Thanks for your feedback Nikki - enjoy your cake! It's perfect for this time of year. Thanks, Jenna - Tui Team

jenna

Do you use fresh coconut?

Naomi

Hi Naomi, we use desiccated coconut and recently tried thread coconut which is great as it adds more texture. Enjoy! Thanks, Jenna - Tui Team

jenna

Will be trying that recipe this weekend sounds delish lots off fejoas sitting on the bench thanks everyone

Valerie

I make feijoa loaf but this sounds yum will def try

Michele Sievers

Have heaps of feijoas. Have you got any recipes that does not contain heaps of sugar. Your Feijoa and Coconut Cake sounds delicious but it has 1 cup of sugar in it. Not only am I a diabetic but also I am losing weight, have already lost 4kgs.

Colleen Hansen

Hi Colleen, we haven't tried this but with other recipes it often works if you cut down the amount of sugar e.g. half a cup instead of one cup. If you need more sweetness you could add some honey instead. Thanks, Jenna - Tui Team.

jenna

i made this. its super delicious.

margo kyle

That's great! Thanks for your feedback Margo. Jenna - Tui Team.

jenna

1 cup of sugar!

Susie

If you want to cut back on sugar by all means do so it will still be great. DONT make up with honey...thars just adding more sugar!

Hazel

I am going to make the cake with Splendour instead of sugar.

Wal Britton

I made the cake yesterday and it was delicious. I am not a good baker but my children loved it.

Paula

Hi Paula, that's great to hear. Thanks for your feedback. Jenna - Tui Team.

Val

I made this cake today, it's really easy and tatpstes great

Merran

Sharon Heyward

Amazing recipe. I made so many and we can't get sick of it.

Paula

That's fantastic, thanks for your feedback Paula :) - Jenna, Tui Team.

jenna

Great sounding dessert cake.

Elaine Byrnes

It would be so nice if recipes would print out on one page. This feijoa cake has one line on a second page!! Going to try baking it now. Thanks very much

Jan

Hi Jan, thank you for your feedback, we will keep this in mind.We hope you enjoy cooking this yummy cake! Jenna ^Tui Team

jenna

This recipe is even better if you soak the coconut and milk together for at least 30 mins.

Maureen

This sounds fantastic, going to make it this afternoon. I've go feijoa's coming out my ears, given loads away. I don't like them off the tree, too perfumey for me, so looking for recipes.

Sharon Milligan

Thanks for the tip Maureen! We hope you enjoy your cake. ^Tui Team

jenna

Hi Sharon, fantastic, we hope you enjoy this cake! We've got a number of other feijoa recipes on our website you can check out too. Happy cooking ^Tui Team

jenna

Awesome cake!!! looks impressive, moist and tasty!

Dina

I thought it is too much but it is perfect! not too sweet.

Dina

This will be great for an after dinner treat!

Patricia

I made this cake following the exact receipt with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and it was delicious! Although next time I’m going to add just a bit more coconut.

Graham

Can anyone tell me if the recipe is fresh coconut or canned coconut? Or is it desiccated coconut? One tip for reducing sugar is to replace some of it with chopped up (small) dried dates or figs. I did that recently with my feijoa muffins and also added half a banana (mushed up). The were great : moist and tasty .

Debbie

Absolutely delicious I made one which lasted one sitting and have had a request for another 👍😊

Ann Johns

I have made this cake three times in the last week - given two away and eaten one myself. Absolutely yummy and so easy to make.

Helen Butcher

I have visitor's coming tomorrow, so I will make this to have with coffee. Thank you.

Pamela Steenstra

Hi, do you think this would freeze? I want to make it while I have feijoas for a upcoming birthday in June and freeze until then. Ta.

Delwyn

Absolutely delicious!

Kate

I don’t care for feijoas so will replace it with rhubarb.

Rhoni

I made this, it turned out absolutely beautifully moist.

Diane Rowe

Absolutely incredible cake. Seriously. I have a cake business and this is the best recipe I've come across. Thank you!

Rose

Sounds delish!!! Might try with mixed wholemeal and white flour on the pretense that it will be healthier!!!!

Lyn Foster

Cake looks amazing

Shirley Rulete

We will add this to our Feijoa recipes and will definitely make it. Our favourite Feijoa recipe at present is Feijoa Ice Cream - delicious!

Gillian

A great recipe to use up the usual glut when they are all ready to use at once. Cordial is also good for the remnants. Wasting nothing! :)

Ann

Excellent cake which I have made over and over- I have replaced the the sugar with baking stevia. (A little bit less than a cup for a cup though to prevent the after taste - though my husband loves the stevia taste).

Sonja

This recipe sounds good. I shall try it.

Mary Frances O'Connell

This Feijoa and Coconut cake is the best cake I have ever made. My husband loves it too. Hoping to make many more. It looks just like the photo.

Kerrin Mazey

Loved this recipe! Perfect with yoghurt.

Sarah

Baked this in a too-shallow tin and had some overflow which baked into crisp biscuit-like blobs—happy accident! Excellent cake!

Ana

Great recipe. I made it gluten and dairy free and it worked brilliantly. I topped with lime buttercream, which was delicious. Was appreciated by my colleagues.

Kerryn

Baked this lovely cake recently adding extra feijoas from my garden. Absolutely delicious and also freezes well!
