Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect cake texture, make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting. This will help the batter come together smoothly and evenly.
  • For optimal flavor, use high-quality unsweetened coconut flakes. Look for flakes that are moist and have a slightly sweet aroma.
  • When preparing the butterscotch sauce, be careful not to overcook the sugar mixture. Overcooking can result in a burnt flavor.
  • If you don't have a double boiler, you can create a makeshift one by placing a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Make sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water.
  • When assembling the cake, be generous with the butterscotch sauce. The sauce should be visible between the layers and on top of the cake.
