Store the coconut custard cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you need to store it longer, refrigerate it for up to a week, or freeze it for up to 3 months.
If the cake is undercooked, even after the recommended baking time, return it to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
