Increase the heat and bring to a boil without stirring. Allow the mixture to cook until it turns a golden amber color, about 8-10 minutes.

Coat the Flan Mold
Quickly pour the hot caramel into a round flan mold or individual ramekins, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. Set aside to cool and harden.

Prepare for Baking
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the flan mold in a large baking dish and fill the baking dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the flan mold.

Bake the Flan
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 50-60 minutes, or until the flan is set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cooling and Serving

Cool the Flan
Once baked, remove the flan from the water bath and allow it to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Unmold and Serve
To serve, run a knife around the edges of the flan to loosen it. Invert a serving plate over the mold and carefully flip it to release the flan. Garnish with shredded coconut and mint leaves if desired.
