FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
1. Can I use desiccated coconut instead of shredded coconut?
Absolutely! While shredded coconut adds a chewy texture, desiccated coconut works well too, offering a slightly different mouthfeel.
2. Can I make the ganache in advance?
Certainly! Prepare the ganache a day ahead and warm it slightly before pouring it over the cake for a perfect, glossy finish.
3. Is there a vegan version of this cake?
Indeed, you can replace eggs with flax eggs, dairy milk with plant-based milk, and heavy cream with coconut cream for a scrumptious vegan rendition.
4. Can I freeze the cake for later enjoyment?
Absolutely. Wrap the cake slices tightly in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil before freezing for up to 2-3 months.
5. What can I use instead of semisweet chocolate chips for the ganache?
Dark chocolate or a combination of dark and milk chocolate can be equally divine choices for the ganache.
