Description
Organic Desiccated Coconut is completely delicious.
We love all things coconut for their nutrition and delicious flavour. If you are lucky enough to have travelled in Asia you will be very familiar with how versatile and tasty the coconut is. Luckily we don’t have to travel far to find ‘coconutty’ things these days and organic desiccated coconut is a great high protein/good fat snack to have on the go.
Our organic desiccated coconut is made from the white flesh of the coconut, the coconut meat is shredded finely and dehydrated at low temperatures. If you want larger pieces of coconut for your recipe you can choose our organic coconut chips.
If you like baking then desiccated coconut goes well in cakes and of course, macaroons! It also makes a delicious crunchy coating for energy ball recipes. If you want to get started with your desiccated coconut try these energy boost breakfast bars.
