Beat for 1 minute with an electric mixer. Then place the bowl over a pot with simmering water and make sure it doesn't touch the water. Beat on high speed until shiny peaks form for about 7 minutes. Remove the bowl from the heat and add the extracts. Beat for another 5 minutes off the heat until the frosting is cool. Frost the cake with the frosting and top it with the flaked coconuts on top as well as on all sides I like to decorate it with jelly beans when I fix it for Easter.
