In reply to Marlene Venter. Hey Marlene, I was wondering if you did try this out gluten free and how it turned out

In reply to Olivia. OK thank you it came out perfect. I’ve tried another recipe and it called for 8 inch three pans but it was a epic fail. They came out so thin and really crispy on the edges but yours turned out perfect thank you.

Can I make this in 3 8in pans? If so do I need more batter?

In reply to Marlene Venter. Hi Marlene! I don't do GF myself but I know a lot of readers have made my cakes GF using a proper all-purpose GF flour blend. It should work fine!

Your cakes look delicious. Have you ever tried converting your cakes to gluten free? I always bake for my family but then I can’t have cake with them because I’m gluten intolerant…Premix cakes aren’t that good.
So I’m going to attempt to convert your vanilla cake and the german cake to gluten free and I will let you know how it goes.

Happy Baking
Marlene

In reply to Anna. Hi Anna! Yes, it was confusing to me too so I had to look up the history. I hope you try this one, it's delicious!

It’s so good, that you explain the name right in the beginning. I was all over the barricades because I am german and there is no traditional thing here made with coconut. Especially not with chocolate. I was like: “A lie! It’s all a lie!!! We germans don’t do coconut and chocolate (well traditional speaking)” 😉
Thanks a lot for explaining, such a rather funny anecdote. I enjoyed reading it a lot and the “Lie”-Screamer calmed down with it too 😉

Have a great day as you made mine with sharing this anecdote

I am designated baker for every birthday in my group of friends, and I always make your recipes, and they always rave about the cakes. But, this one was another level. There were actual tears. Delicious!
