What is Coconut Chocolate Cake Bites

A loaf tin dessert of white chocolate and coconut mascarpone cream layered with piped milk chocolate cream.

How to make Coconut Chocolate Cake Bites

Tips from the cook

  • Let the melted white chocolate cool a little before mixing it into the mascarpone, so the cream stays smooth.
  • Press the cling film down firmly on the top, so the block sets flat and cuts cleanly.
  • Chill until firm and cut with a warm knife.
  • Let the melted milk chocolate cool slightly before dipping, so it coats in a thin layer.
