Good morning CC!! i need some of your ideas please... my brain is dry and i need to make a cake for my brother in law birthday and he likes coconut cakes.... wich i've never done one... any suggestions???
Thank you all for reading!!!!! 
I have an order for a coconut cake next week and the customer asked for pineapple filling. Guess its a family favorite of theirs as they have had it for years.
Someone else I know orders french vanilla bean filling.
You could also do a chocolate & almond filling (Think Almond Joy).
Just a couple ideas to get you started...
For my daughter's birthday I did one tier of her cake coconut flavored. I have learned alot since then and I've been meaning to work on a better coconut recipe. What I've done in the past was to add about 1 cup of toasted coconut to a white cake mix with butter pecan extract added. I have sometimes replaced all or some of the oil with melted butter. I like butter and coconut flavors together. I think you could easily use a WASC recipe and replace the almond with coconut extract and add some coconut to the batter. I love the flavor of toasted coconut and I just add some to vanilla butter cream for a super easy filling.
I love anything coconut! My favorite coconut filling is very simple.... one 14 oz. bag of flaked coconut mixed with one can of sweetened condensed milk. Before stirring in the milk, I put the coconut in a food processor and chop it into smaller pieces. The texture is less stringy this way. This filling tastes exactly like the filling in an Almond Joy candy bar. I'm drooling just thinking about it. haha 
Funny! I am doing a coconut cake this month as well. I plan on using pineapple for the filling - normal cake - toasted coconut on top - hersheys kisses in the center on the top. Pipe a border and then some type of decoration around the sides.
Any other suggestions?
I did a lime cream cheese filling for a coconut cake this weekend. It got rave revues.
