Church suppers. My lord how I loved those as a kid. I also remember sitting on top of the ice cream churn, cranking until my arm was on fire. Always vanilla, peach and banana. Y.U.M.

My mom always made what she called a cherry bubble cake with canned sour cherries. Made really the same way. With the same topping minus the coconut. It is so good! I make it occasionally but my husband is not a fan of cherries and I sure don't need it all! It's called bubble cake because the cherries come to the top and gives a bubble like look. Update: I looked at her recipe and It is exactly the same. Only using cherries instead of the peaches or fruit cocktail. If you like cherries give that a try sometime!

I make a poke cake using strawberry jello with a white cake mix bake in a 9x11 take a wooden spoon and poke holes all over the cake mix. Take large box of jello strawberry mix as stated poor all over the cake. Place cake in fridge to set up then frost it with cool whip decroate with sliced or chopped strawberries great summer time dessert. The reason I typed all this out I was thinking about your cake if you poked holes in it before putting the coconut icing drizzle on it would let was seep farther down into the cake..😁

Ingles has a brand and it’s organic unsweetened coconut and I love it. It’s still plenty sweet on its own. Just a thought of how to maybe cut down on the sweetness.

That trick with the kitchen shears is what I do if I buy packaged slaw mix or salad. I just put it in the bowl and use the shears on it till it is the size I want. Those peachs would chop easy with shears if someone wanted. Those scissors do all kinds of things. This is one of those cakes that is always a winner. I have to make a birthday cake for Buz next week. This might be something different. Of course he thinks he has to put ice cream on any cake. You surely are blessed to have 2 wonderful mothers in law. In all the busy days right now take a deep breath and thank God for blessings. Praying for yall. Have a great week.
