Looking for an unique dessert that will both impress and please a crowd? This humming bird cake roll is it! This moist spiced cake is packed full of coconut and pineapple, then filled with pineapple cream cheese frosting and pecans, then sealed in a creamy white chocolate shell smothered in toasted coconut!
At first sight this cake seems more complicated than it actually is due to the rolling of the cake. The key to getting this to roll well is to roll it right when it comes out of the oven and to put it in the refrigerator to chill. Use a kitchen towel that doesn’t give off lint as this will not only stick into the cake but also make it harder to unroll when it’s time to assemble this cake. This cake can be made a day or two ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
