Coconuts (and coconut milk) aren’t traditional ingredients in Polish desserts (as they don’t grow here).
Visually, this dessert doesn’t resemble any typical Polish sweets either – it might just be a unique recipe from this particular café.
If you’re curious, you can always reach out to them directly: [emigrant.coffee@gmail.com](mailto:emigrant.coffee@gmail.com)
*Edit to add:*
On closer look, it does resemble “Mrowisko” to some extent – a regional dessert from the Podlachia region (northeastern Poland) and Lithuania.
That said, a typical Mrowisko is usually much larger, and doesn’t contain any coconut products. [https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mrowisko_(ciasto)](https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mrowisko_(ciasto))
But as I mentioned, it only *resembles* Mrowisko. It could be a completely different dessert altogether…
Maybe it is some abbreviation of “kokosanka”
