Notes

You can use any cake mix.  Just adjust the quantities of the wet ingredients if needed.
My favorites are Simple Mills and Miss Jones Baking Co.
I used Miss Jones Bakes in this recipe which makes two 9 inch cakes so you have the choice to freeze one and eat one. It keeps on the counter for 3 days. If you think you will need more time to eat it, I would just put it in the refrigerator and it will keep longer to 5 days. You can pop it in quick in the microwave for 10 seconds to refresh it.
You can purchase the Matamis Na Bao (Coconut Jam) made with coconut nectar at Chibundle.
