Coconut Mandarin Orange Bunt Cake

This recipe came to me when Mandarin Oranges were on sale, and I knew I still had some coconut left over from another recipe, and I didnt want to let that go to waste. I went on the internet, and found about 30 recipes for this cake. They were all similar. Most called for making the cake from scratch, which I did end up doing, but a box cake mix would have worked as well. I loved the combo of the citris with the tropical. It gave me a bit of sunshine, on an otherwise gloomy December day.
