I'm looking forward to trying this buttercream on a birthday cake I will be making in a couple of weeks. The recipe says "one cup of sugar, divided" but the only direction for using it is to make the syrup with 3/4 cup of it. What do we do with the other 1/4 cup of sugar? Thanks!

Your cake looks marvOlous! Can I substitute a powder called Just Whites or meriguine powder by Wilton?

Wow! I hope I buy enough coconut. Every time I try to follow a recipe with coconut, I wind up eating it right from the package. Gonna try this soon. Thanks.

The cake looks so light and luscious. My father has been asking for a coconut cake. I think I will have to give yours a go.

The fresh cheese sounds amazing too. I think I need a cow in my backyard! Especioally the way prices keep going up. Of course the feed for the cow would be pretty hefty price as well. he he

Hi Tartelette :)

First off, I have to say, that coconut cake looks marvelous, as well as scrumptious. Not to mention, your blog is amazing, the photography, breathtaking, and recipes, out of this world.

That said, I could not find an email to contact you, as I have a question regarding macarons, and you are definitely the queen of the macs! Am I missing a contact or email link anywhere in your blog?

Finally, I just participated in my first SHF last month (mmm...Canada, even though I'm not from), and was wondering when the next SHF was?

Thanks!
Lisa

aaaah, cream cheese buttercream, the best of both worlds. it sounds absolutely delectable. and although it's a bit different from the coconut cake of my childhood (totally southern-style), i don't discriminate. :)
