- Grease a 10-inch tube pan.
- Combine flour, salt, and baking soda in a bowl.
- Beat 1 1/2 cup butter and 3 cups sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh coconut milk and shredded coconut will give your cake the best flavor and texture.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix the batter until the ingredients are just combined.
- Bake the cake in a water bath: This will help the cake bake evenly and prevent it from drying out.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting set properly.
- Use a cream cheese frosting: Cream cheese frosting is the perfect complement to coconut cake. It's rich and creamy, with a slightly tangy flavor that balances out the sweetness of the cake.
- Garnish the cake with toasted coconut: Toasted coconut adds a nice crunch and extra coconut flavor to the cake.
