Coconut water. It doesn't taste as good but will do.
This really depends on the size of the can of coconut.
If the coconut is a fine flake, I think you possibly could. But, since the canned coconut is sweeter, and more moist, there may be some difference in the moistness of the cake. As for the sweetness: the traditional icing for an Italian Cream Cake is rather sweet anyway, which could compensate for the sweeter taste of canned coconut, and that may actually taste better than canned coconut. I would certainly give it a try, but probably not at a time when I am making that particular recipe for a special ocassion.
You can get coconut juice almost at grocery store in Chinatown in SF but they are canned coconut juice if that is what you are finding

Try canned squash
The best alternative is condensed/evaporated milk in a can. Coconut milk is often used for it's sweetness and consistency in recipes and condensed milk has a similar consistency and is usually sweet as well, making it a great alternative.
i dont think so. use regular milk instead of canned. that would work
Yeah, of course. It might not be as sweet, though so I suggest adding like a tablespoon of sugar, depending on how much coconut flakes your using.

It's between off-white and yellow. It's a little darker than you would expect milk to look.
Yes they can. The fresh coconut water is specially good (in moderation, no more than a third of their daily liquid intake). The fresh coconut flesh (skin) is good as well, again in moderate amounts. In the tropics around the world, coconut is part of the daily diet in some form. The canned/tinned stuff is OK as well.
There are:approximately 445-467 calories in 1 cup of canned coconut milkapproximately 552 calories in 1 cup of freshly made coconut milk (liquid expressed from grated coconut and water).
Using a small, sturdy knife, pry out the coconut meat from the shell. It will come out in pieces, but try to keep them as large as possible. Using a swivel vegetable peeler, peel the outer brown part from the coconut meat. Then, shred it with a cheese grater (rotary or standing) or a food processor fitted with the fine shredding blade.
