Mango Coconut Bundt Cake

This post is sponsored in conjunction with #SpringSweetsWeek. I received product samples from sponsor companies to help in the creation of the #SpringSweetsWeek recipes. All opinions are mine alone.
My recipe of the day is for a 6-ingredient Mango-Coconut Bundt cake for Spring Sweets Week.
So much fun with so few ingredients!
I had so much fun not so long ago making up a 5-ingredient Bundt cake for the Bundt Bakers group that I decided to dabble in this new scheme again.
You see, outside of something very plain, like a pound cake, I didn’t figure there was much you could do to make a cake so interesting with so few ingredients, but boy was I ever wrong!
You can see for yourself how delicious this looks, and I will talk more about the cake below. But now, for the main event!

6-Ingredient Mango-Coconut Bundt Cake
Now back to the cake. You may have noticed the Blueberry Bundt cake on the way down to the recipe. It’s delicious too. That one uses pie filling as a flavor crutch.
In this version though, the secret lies with canned diced mango, which you can get in most grocery stores. Along with that, the sweetened coconut, as we are fond of using coconut in so many dessert recipes this time of year. It’s an Easter Bunny thing.
This might be a lot like some recipes for fruit cocktail cake which I have seen, but haven’t tried.Well, at least *I think* it is- both have canned fruit.
Tropical Cake
But like so many other decadent cakes with fruit, this goes above and beyond the ordinary, having a wildly yummy tropical taste that I know you will love.
This uses Dixie Crystals sugar too, which they were kind enough to send me gob-tons of and I am literally gobsmacked. I won’t be running out of sugar the way I am toilet paper!

My family loves mango. I know they will love this dessert once we are able to go back to living. I have the coconut but no mango in the house.
This uses the canned mango in syrup. You could probably use something like canned peaches too with a different flavor.
Girl, you had me at mango and then kept going with the coconut. This looks divine!
You had me at mango! It’s second after pears of my fruit faves!
