Coconut Bundt Cake 

( Inspired by 'Tom Cruise Coconut Bundt Cake')

My son wanted me to try this famous “Tom Cruise Cake” . 

It's a white chocolate-coconut Bundt cake from Doan's Bakery in California. Every year, Tom Cruise gifts the decadent cake to his closest friends for the holidays.

I  tried my level best to prepare this super  yummy coconut cake as per my choice . 

Believe me, it's the best coconut cake I have ever tasted ! 

The best treat for Coconut lovers!!


Incredibly moist, super creamy, fluffy, topped with amazingly delicious cream cheese frosting , decorated with shredded coconut! Super yumm!

The creamy coconut milk added to the batter adds amazing flavour, fluffiness and juicy - creamy texture to this awesomely delicious cake. 

The sweetened desiccated coconut flakes adds unique  flavour and richness to this gorgeous cake. 

Try this easy cake recipe and I am sure your family would definitely request you to prepare it again and again.

Please note:

Here I have used less sugar as we prefer less sweet cake. You can add sugar as per your preference. 

You can use sweetened or unsweetened  desiccated coconut flakes .

You can use grated or melted white chocolate. Here I used grated white chocolate. 

Baking time might change as per your oven temperature settings. Kindly insert a skewer and check for baking.

Mutton Green Masala This is one of the oldest & most common recipes of Mangalorean cuisine.  This quick & easy curry is a perfect blend of aromatic spices and has a freshness and flavours of herbs like coriander & mint leaves.  This flavourful green curry goes extremely well with sanna, neeru dosa/ panpole, appams and even with roti, chapathi or boiled rice. My family loves it with soft silky neeru dosas/panpole.  The soup of mutton makes this curry so glossy ,  flavourful and aromatic.  This same masala can be used for chicken too.  Please note: Use spices as per your preference.  Cooking time of mutton depends on the quality of meat.
