Why is this site called “Dessicated Coconut”?
In the film Better Than Sex, in which David plays a photographer named Josh who has a three-night stand with a girl he meets at a party, dessicated coconut is the…um….climax of an old recipe. The recipe: 3 cups of self-raising flour 4 lemons 1 cup of milk 1 teaspoon of baking powder 6 eggs 8 oz. butter Dessicated coconut I think, but I’m not certain, that this is a recipe for lamingtons, a type of pound cake rolled in chocolate and dessicated coconut, which are very popular in Australia for children’s birthday parties and other special occasions. Lamingtons also get prominent product placement in After The Deluge. Dessicated coconut, like this web site, is white and flaky and has very little nutritive value.
