For a sweeter and more vibrant salad, consider adding fresh berries like strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries, depending on the season. If preparing in advance, wait to add the cornflakes and coconut until just before serving to prevent them from becoming soggy. For a creamier salad, use full-fat sour cream. Alternatively, Greek yogurt can be substituted for a tangier flavor profile. To enhance the coconut flavor, lightly toast the flaked coconut in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden brown, stirring constantly.
