- The final layer should be custard.
- Chill until set in the fridge for 4 hours or overnight.
- Optional: to decorate with toasted coconut, lightly toast the coconut in a dry pan on the stove.
- Be careful that it doesn’t burn.
- It should take a few minutes to toast.
- Allow to cool.
- Carefully lift the custard loaf out of the tin when it has set and place on a serving plate.
- Slide the baking paper out (or trim so it remains only underneath the loaf).
- Decorate with toasted coconut and fresh fruit before serving (optional).
