Directions

Prepare Champagne Cake I as directed, but bake in two 9 inch round pans. Allow to cool. When cool, put together with coconut filling.
Coconut Filling: Over boiling water in double boiler, melt 16 marshmallows, butter and wine. Remove from heat and add coconut.
Fondant Frosting: Sift powdered sugar in top of double boiler. Add corn syrup and water. Stir over boiling water until smooth. Add the vanilla, salt and almond flavoring. For pink champagne effect, add 2 or 3 drops red food coloring.
Keep frosting warm so it spreads evenly. With spoon, carefully pour fondant over top and sides of cake. Slice marshmallows into 4 rounds each, dip in fondant and place at random on top of cake.

"This is one of the best cakes I have ever made. It does make a lot of icing so be sure to use an extra deep pan. The disposible ones work well...." See more"

"My review is only for the Filling (as I haven't made "this" actual cake yet), but WOW. I made the "filling" part of the recipe to top a German Chocolate cake because I was wanting to use up Marshmallo..." See morews. I heated the water in the saucepan 5 minutes before the cake was done, setting my double boiler aside with ingredients inside, until ready. I added some Creme Brulee Sauce (like a caramel topping), a small splash of vanilla and substitute the wine with Seven-up. Topped the cake (and ate it too) while still warm and YUM!!! It was a great hit for the neighborhood Women's bible study! Will be making this one again!"
