Coconut Pound Cake

Be sure to clean the grill rack thoroughly with a metal brush to remove any bits of grilled food that might impart an off flavor to the cake. Reheat the cake on a baking sheet in a 350°F oven before serving.

Cooks' notes:

•Syrup can be made 3 days ahead and chilled, covered.
•Fruit can be cut 4 hours ahead and chilled, wrapped in plastic wrap.
•If you aren't able to grill outdoors, cake can be toasted in a toaster or cooked in a hot lightly oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderate heat.
