Begin by measuring out your coconut milk, granulated sugar, freshly squeezed orange juice, and lime zest.

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the measured coconut milk and sugar over medium-low heat. Stir continuously for about 5 minutes until the sugar is fully dissolved.

Gradually add the freshly squeezed orange juice to the warm coconut mixture, whisking continuously. Heat for an additional 3-4 minutes until the mixture begins to gently simmer.

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and lime zest. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes.

Pour the mixture into individual serving dishes or a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour.

Remove the dishes from the fridge, top with whipped cream and toasted coconut flakes before serving.
