For an extra layer of flavor, try toasting the coconut flakes and sprinkling them over the flan before serving. Be careful not to overcook the caramel, as it can become bitter. A light amber color is ideal. Ensure the water bath is hot enough to create steam, but not boiling vigorously, to prevent the flans from becoming rubbery. If you don't have ramekins, you can use a single baking dish, but adjust the baking time accordingly.
