Method

  • Step 1 Line an 11cm x 21cm (top measurement) loaf pan with baking paper, extending the paper 2cm above edges of pan.
  • Step 2 Place 2 cups coconut frozen dessert into a bowl. Set aside for 2 minutes to soften (do not melt). Spoon into prepared pan. Level surface. Freeze for 2 hours or until firm.
  • Step 3 Place remaining coconut frozen dessert into a bowl. Set aside for 2 minutes to soften (do not melt). Place three-quarters of the chopped peach into a food processor. Process until smooth. Add softened coconut dessert. Process until combined. Pour peach mixture into pan over coconut layer. Level surface. Freeze for 3 hours or until firm.
  • Step 4 Cut madeira cake horizontally into 2cm-thick slices. Spoon sorbet over peach layer in pan. Level surface. Arrange cake slices, trimming to fit, on sorbet to cover and form a base. Discard trimmings. Freeze for 4 hours or until firm.
  • Step 5 Meanwhile, place remaining chopped peach, sugar and 1/4 cup water in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil. Boil for 3 to 4 minutes or until syrup thickens. Strain through a fine sieve. Discard solids. Set aside syrup to cool completely.
  • Step 6 Stand cake at room temperature for 5 minutes. Turn onto a serving plate. Remove and discard baking paper. Decorate with peach wedges, coconut chips and basil leaves. Drizzle with syrup. Serve immediately.
