The cakes are soaked in the most delicate cream; the outside of the cake is decorated with coconut shavings, which gives the cake additional flavor notes. If you don’t have such shavings, you can replace them with sprinkles that will remain after cutting the cakes — this will also look very good, attractive and organic.

Recipe instructions

Step 1

Cut out a rectangle or circle from parchment paper that is large enough to fit into your baking pan. Grease it with butter and sprinkle with flour. Place one ball in the middle and thinly roll it out into a flat cake with a rolling pin, trying to give it the shape of a circle. No need to pierce with a fork. Place the cake on parchment in the oven for 10 minutes at 160 degrees.
