I think so with the extra pan of coconut bars that Jocie is making. I have a cast iron skillet as well. Will need to see if it's the right kind.

You might try to cook them in those large rectangular trays, but I doubt they'd turn out as well. The way I cook them is in a 12 inch cast iron skillet.

This cake can be served at ambient temperature. Nothing needs to be served with it. I could really use a way to transport them. If anyone has any cake carriers, that would be perfect. I've got one, but I'll need 3 more to carry all four cakes. The cakes are going to be circular with 12 inch diameters. My guess is that you could serve 16 people per cake for a total of 56 people with the 4 cakes, but you might be a better judge of serving size and whatnot. The recipe calls for the following (per cake, so multiply by 4): 1 1/4 stick of Earth Balance Buttery Sticks or Willow Run Margarine sticks (these have not dairy at all) 284 grams Dark Brown Sugar 1 20 oz. can sliced pineapple in heavy syrup 9 maraschino cherries (even a small bottle will probably cover two cakes) 26 grams pecans 169 grams All Purpose Flour 6 grams Baking Powder 3 grams Salt 4 large Eggs 248 grams Granulated Sugar If I really needed to, I could probably manage making 6 cakes, but I would love some help. The cakes last well for 5 days at room temperature, so it's relatively easy to make them in advance. But, I can only fit two cakes at a time in my oven and they take at least an hour to cook, not including prep time. Let me just say that this stuff is really freaking good, so having extras will not be a problem. :) --Matt On Mon, Sep 26, 2011 at 2:55 PM, Stefan Creaser wrote: Yes, please can you get me the recipe and how many each one would feed.

Re: [tcrcooks] dessert carrier
Agreed. Carriers are for moving the food, not as a cutting/serving boards. I just remembered that I may have some other large party tray style containers with lids. I'll check this evening and send a picture. Andy Z --- On Wed, 9/28/11, Matthew Zappitello wrote: From: Matthew Zappitello Subject: Re: [tcrcooks] Menu...
