Did the sweet roll have a coconut cream filling, or was it just unctuously abbreviated with coconut flakes?

Either of those are among the rare purchases I'd make at a HK/Chinatown bakery (my usual go-to, at least when in HK, is called "wooden milk bread"). One place in San Francisco had what was called in English a "coconut volcano," which was the best version I've eaten up until now.
