Poppy seed and coconut cake
8 servings
45 minutes
Poppy-coconut cake is an amazing combination of airy tenderness and rich aroma. Poppy, used for centuries in Eastern and European cuisine, gives the dough an exquisite texture, while coconut flakes add a tropical note. Thanks to butter and sour cream, the layers become soft and juicy. The milk and egg-based cream is silky with a light vanilla hint that pairs perfectly with the poppy-coconut base. This cake is ideal for festive tables; its unique taste lingers in memory for a long time. The layers decorated with coconut chips not only give the dessert an impressive look but also add an extra layer of texture. The flavor of the cake is a harmony of sweetness, richness of poppy, and delicate milky tenderness, creating true gastronomic magic.
