You know, the puff pastry squares with raspberry jam inside and shredded/threaded coconut on top of white icing.
The name I know them by is on the tip of my tongue but short of phoning the bakers tomorrow I can't remember the name!!!

Thanks, I'd looked there too but to no avail ... I am SURE I called them something else when I was a kid; we just call them 'those square coconut cakes' in this house ...frivolous_fay wrote: »http://www.yellowswordfish.com/735/how-to-make-a-london-cheesecake/
