Pastel dough sheets are typically found in the refrigerated section of most supermarkets, often near other types of doughs or frozen pastries. Look in international or specialty aisles for Latin American or Asian ingredients, as they are common in various cuisines. If you can't find pre-cut rounds, you can buy larger sheets and cut them to size. Canned condensed milk is a pantry staple available in the dairy or baking aisle of any supermarket. Shredded coconut is also widely available in the baking or international aisle. Ensure it's unsweetened for this recipe, unless you prefer a sweeter result.
