Cooking Tips:

- Ensure that the butter is softened to room temperature before you start to make it easier to cream with the sugar.

- When separating the eggs, make sure no yolk gets into the whites to ensure proper consistency.

- To avoid any lumps in your pudding, sift the self-raising flour and all-purpose white wheat flour before mixing.

- Use freshly squeezed lemon and lime juice for the best flavor and aroma.

- For a more intense coconut flavor, lightly toast the dried coconut meat before adding it to the mixture.

- Consider chilling the pudding for a few hours before serving to let the flavors meld together beautifully.

- Garnish the pudding with a sprinkle of dried coconut meat or a thin slice of lemon or lime for a decorative touch.
