Notes: I don't remember a picnic with my Reinker relatives at Eagle Point Park without this cake made by Mom. It was a family tradition. We always called it "Hair Cake". Mom said Marinette named it "Hair Cake" since it looked like hair on a cake. At home, we would also have this cake, without the coconut topping. putting chocolate syrup on it instead. Fred coined the name "Robinhood Cake" for that. He said we always seemed to have it when Robinhood was on.
