This recipe comes from the Riverside Cup of Tea's, (where I used to work as a server) cookbook. It is quite beautiful with its three layers and pink icing and yummy if you like coconut, pecans and marischino cherries. The original recipe called for a full cup of oil. I've changed it a bit to make it a little lighter
