Flavor Twists
Chocolate Lover’s Version: Replace vanilla pudding with chocolate pudding and top with chocolate shavings instead of coconut.
Citrus Kick: Add a teaspoon of orange or lemon zest to the pudding layer for a refreshing twist.
Texture Enhancements
Nutty Addition: Sprinkle chopped pecans or almonds over the coconut layer for added crunch.
Graham Cracker Crust: Before baking the cake, sprinkle crushed graham crackers at the bottom of the pan for an extra layer of flavor.
Substitutions
Use angel food cake or white cake mix instead of yellow for a lighter base.
Swap whipped topping for stabilized whipped cream or Greek yogurt for a less sweet option.
