The coconut cake is a southern masterpiece- a chiffon cake with creamy coconut filling and frosting. Our version will have a coconut mascarpone filling and buttercream frosting. Next, we’ll make a Kentucky Frasier cake, a butter cake infused with strawberry smash syrup & fresh strawberries and Diplomat Cream.  Please note due to time constraints, some elements will be made ahead or demoed and due to the difficulty of dividing recipes into small batches of batter, students work in groups for some elements.  Coconut Cake, Kentucky Frasier Cake
