cake and glaze

it shouldn't become soggy. i'm sure it's meant to seep into the cake and add flavor. usually with these types of cakes, they are better the next day so that the yummy glaze does actually meld with the cake. i would love your quantities on this glaze. it sounds delicious!

Thanks! It's a recipe for a Coconut Pound Cake, made by Daphne Oz on The Chew. It looked fantastic, so much so that I scrapped the cake I had wanted to make for this one. Here are the ingredients:

FOR THE CAKE:4 Eggs, 2 cups Sugar, 1 cup Unsalted Butter, 3 cups Flour, 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder, 1/2 teaspoon Salt, 1 cup Buttermilk, 1 cup Flaked Coconut (unsweetened),1 cup Chopped Pecans.

FOR THE GLAZE:1/2 cup Water, 2 tablespoon Salted Butter, 1 cup Sugar, powdered sugar for dusting

That sounds delicious, my Mother used to make a lemon tube cake with the same glaze except she used lemon juice instead of water. The cake was even better the next day as the glaze saturated the cake. YUM!
