Indulge in the tropical delight of homemade coconut cake, a moist and flavorful treat perfect for any occasion. Properly stored, this delightful confection can maintain its delicious taste and texture for several days.

Storage Time

3–4 days at room temperature, 5–7 days in the refrigerator, up to 3 months in the freezer.

Temperature

Store unfrosted cake at room temperature (18-22°C) or frosted cake in the refrigerator (0-4°C).

Freezing

Coconut cake freezes beautifully! Wrap individual slices or the entire cake tightly in plastic wrap, then in aluminum foil or a freezer-safe container to prevent freezer burn. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator for best results, or at room temperature for a few hours. Freezing may slightly alter the texture of frosting, especially buttercream.

Signs of Spoilage

• Visible mold growth on the cake or frosting.
• A sour or off odor emanating from the cake.
• A slimy or sticky texture on the surface of the cake.
