Why does maja blanca does not keep in shape when sliced?

Maja blanca tends to lose its shape when sliced due to its soft and creamy texture, which is primarily derived from coconut milk and cornstarch. Unlike firmer desserts, such as Gelatin or cake, it lacks the structural integrity needed to hold together when cut. Additionally, if not allowed to cool and set properly, it can become too soft, further compromising its ability to maintain shape. Proper refrigeration and allowing it to fully set can help improve its slicing quality.
