Grease a ring form (2 litres capacity) and sprinkle with flour. Pour in the dough and smooth it down.

    Turn out onto a cake rack and let it cool down. After about 20 minutes, soak the gelatine in cold water. Drain the pineapple and cut the slices into small cubes. Stir coconut cream until smooth and mix with yoghurt and pineapple cubes. Drain the cherries, put some aside for decoration. Warm up the lime juice and remove from the heat. Squeeze the gelatine well and dissolve in it. Mix gelatine with 2-3 tablespoons of the cream. Add to the remaining cream and stir until smooth. Chill for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. In the meantime cut the cake in half horizontally and place the base on a cake plate. Cover with a cake ring. When the cream starts to gel, carefully spread half of it on the base. Place a chain of cherries and cover with the remaining cream.
