Glazed Orange Coconut Cake image

Found this recipe in a supplement of a local paper and it sounded delicious. It was,also, called Juicy Orange Cake, which pretty much sums up the incredible flavor. The cake was devoured before I could get pictures:) So will have to post pictures next time I make it. Enjoy!
