Make the angel food cake according to the package directions, substituting the coconut water for water and adding lemon extract. After baking, let the cake cool completely.
When cool, carefully slice cake into three even layers with a long serrated knife. Set aside.
In a large bowl combine the whipped topping and lemon peel.
Place the bottom cake layer on a serving plate. Spread with a little less than one-third of the whipped topping mixture. Top with second layer. Spread with a little less than one-third of the whipped-topping mixture. Place top layer on cake. Top with remaining whipped-topping mixture.
