Cream butter, sugar and orange zest until light and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add coconut. Fold in flour alternately with milk and juice, until just combined. Transfer to prepared pans and bake for 20-25 mins, until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in pans for 5 mins then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Meanwhile, to make the icing, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and orange juice, beating until smooth. Spread over cooled cakes. Sprinkle with toasted coconut and orange rind.
