Critical Success Points

  • Ensuring the powdered sugar fully dissolves in the eggs to avoid gritty texture
  • Folding the flour mixture gently to prevent lumps
  • Baking at the correct temperature (170 °C) for an even rise
  • Applying the glaze while the bread is still warm before coating with coconut

Safety Warnings

  • Hot oven – use oven mitts when handling trays
  • Sugar glaze can cause burns – handle carefully and allow to cool before touching
  • Raw eggs – wash hands and utensils thoroughly after use
