Beat all ingredients together as listed above, beating 6 minutes with addition of last ingredient. Divide batter between two 9-inch greased foil cake pans placed on a cookie sheet on center rack of oven. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30-35 minutes or till browned.

Pierce each cake 25 to 30 times with a toothpick and drizzle with thinned vanilla icing while hot from the oven. Then spread each cake with 2 tablespoons orange marmalade or pineapple preserves. Sprinkle top with shredded coconut and place a thin slice of orange in the center for garnish. Wrap in foil and take to a friend along with a cup of Herman and the directions for adding to the starter. Keep one cake for yourself. They freeze for months.
