Chocolate Coconut Cake in 30 minutes - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

The vinegar helps to activate the baking soda and create a light and airy texture. However, if you don't have vinegar, you can substitute with buttermilk or sour milk. You can also use regular milk, but the cake might not be as fluffy.
While coconut milk adds a distinct flavor, you can substitute it with another plant-based milk like almond milk or soy milk. The flavor will be slightly different, but the texture should remain similar. For a richer substitute, use heavy cream or full-fat milk, but adjust sweetness accordingly.
Store the assembled cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The frosting is coconut cream-based and will soften at room temperature. You can store the cake layers separately, unfrosted, at room temperature for 1-2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Yes, you can freeze the baked cake layers. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and then in foil. They can be frozen for up to 2 months. Thaw them completely before frosting. Freezing the frosted cake is not recommended due to the coconut cream frosting's texture changing upon thawing.
You can substitute the coconut cream frosting with a traditional buttercream frosting, a chocolate ganache, or even a cream cheese frosting. Keep in mind the flavor profile will change. For a healthier option, try using Greek yogurt sweetened with honey and a touch of vanilla.
Yes, you can substitute the regular flour with a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend. Make sure the blend contains xanthan gum or add some separately (about 1 teaspoon for this recipe) to help bind the ingredients and provide structure.
Use a higher quality cocoa powder, like Dutch-processed cocoa, and add a tablespoon of instant espresso powder to the cream. This will enhance the chocolate flavor. You can also use melted dark chocolate instead of cocoa powder for an even richer flavor.
Yes, the cake layers can be baked a day or two in advance and stored, well-wrapped, at room temperature. The frosting can also be made a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Just re-whip it before using.
