Method

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Generously grease a tube pan. For the cake: In a large bowl, combine the sugar, eggs, oil, orange juice, flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and vanilla extract; mix well. Fold apples, coconut, and pecans into batter. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a tester comes out clean, about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. Shortly before the cake is done, make the sauce: Melt the butter in a large saucepan, stir in the sugar, buttermilk, and baking soda, and bring to a good rolling boil, stirring constantly. Boil for 1 minute. Stir in cinnamon. Pour the hot sauce over the hot cake in the pan. Let stand 1 hour, then turn out onto a rack to cool completely.
