Violet’s pineapple-coconut cake
Cakes

I can pinpoint the moment I learned about my great-grandmother Violet’s beloved pineapple-coconut cake. Once my relatives started talking about it, the details flowed like juicy gossip. We were in my mother’s kitchen in Southern California; everyone started talking at once. “That caramel frosting of hers, it just oozed everywhere,” my aunt Patrice said, her eyes lit up. The cake symbolizes joyous family celebrations. Note that this frosting is quite sticky and thick —Grandma Violet liked it that way!
