Pineapple Coconut Cake Trees
Small coconut cakes with pieces of pineapple and an optional splash of rum, baked into a cone and glazed so they look like snowy palm-island trees. The oiled Cornets Party cones release the cakes cleanly, and the recipe also works in the microwave.

Ingredients
Method
Heat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
Drain the pineapple and cut it into small pieces. Mix it with the egg, sugar, rum, flour, baking powder, 45 ml (3 tbsp) of the coconut and 15 ml (1 tbsp) of the oil.
Pour the rest of the oil into the Tupperware Cornets Party cones, turn them to coat the inside and tip out the excess.
Fill the cones, stand them point down in a deep dish and bake for about 16 minutes (or microwave for about 3 minutes at 360 W). Cool for 10 minutes, then ease the cakes out.
Stir the icing sugar and lemon juice into a thick glaze, pour it over the trees and dust with the remaining coconut.
