Notes

Cake tastes best at room temperature. Keep in an air tight container in the fridge for upto 10 days. bring to room temperature before serving. The quality of baking soda and baking powder is extremely important. I recommend getting fresh baking powder and soda. There is no need for any additional oil or butter as the coconut milk is pretty high in fat content. I used 'A Taste of Thai' brand coconut milk. I used the 'Unsweetened First Pressing' its the one with the most coconut flavor and is the thickest and richest coconut milk. This cake does not turn golden brown on top like a flour cake. Broil the top for a few minutes to toast the coconut flakes. Alternatively, bake some coconut flakes till crisp and golden and top your cake with the toasted coconut flakes.
