I used instant polenta for these cakes. Didn't find that them sandy at all. The texture of the cakes is very much like a friand, with the shredded coconut being the dominant crunch factor. Don't be tempted to add more coconut though coz it makes the cakes too crumbly I reckon. I've made these cakes a couple of times now...love them! :)Nessie @ bakingequalslovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06290180828615367628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147992061427760299.post-21733700729695419732010-12-13T14:45:28.641-08:002010-12-13T14:45:28.641-08:00Wow what a lunch!

I've only used polenta once in baking, and it was to make cookies, it didn't go so well, too crunchy, it was only afterwards that I realised you can get instant or non-instant and I probably used the wrong one. It was like eating cookies made with sand, not so fun. Long story short: do you use instant polenta for your rose cakes? and what is the resulting texture like? I'd love to give baking with polenta another try.Linnohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00271547471717477078noreply@blogger.com
