Where to find ingredients
In Namibia, you can find these staples at major supermarkets like Spar, Checkers, or Woolworths. Sweetened condensed milk and desiccated coconut are commonly stocked in the baking aisle. For the best result, use standard cake flour found in any local baking section. Fresh eggs, butter, and sugar are readily available in the dairy and pantry staples aisles of any local grocery shop.
Preparation method
- In your blender, combine the condensed milk, desiccated coconut, eggs, butter, flour, and sugar
- Blitz everything together until you have a smooth, well-combined batter
- Add the baking powder last and fold it in gently with a spoon or spatula, or use the pulse setting on the blender just to incorporate it
- Pour the mixture into a greased and lightly floured cake tin
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 30 to 40 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean
- Remove the cake from the oven and let it sit until warm
- While still warm, slice the cake into neat squares
- Dust the pieces in extra caster sugar before serving
