FAQs About Shredded Coconut
What to do with shredded coconut?
Shredded coconut is perfect for experimenting. It’s a welcome ingredient, especially when you want to use up some leftovers. Since shredded coconut can be used in both sweet and savory dishes, there are no limits to your creativity. Have you ever tried spicing up your pancake batter with coconut? Adding shredded coconut to your homemade granola bars or energy balls also creates an exotic flavor experience.
What’s the difference between coconut flakes and shredded coconut?
Coconut flakes and shredded coconut are often used interchangeably, as they are essentially the same product. Both are made from the flesh of the coconut and differ somewhat in size and texture. As a result, shredded coconut can be coarse and elongated, while coconut flakes sometimes have a flatter and finer texture.
However, it’s important to note that there are different qualities and types of shredded coconut. Natural organic coconut flakes and unsweetened shredded coconut are milder alternatives, while toasted coconut flakes can have a more intense aroma and a stronger flavor.
Organic coconut flakes are versatile ingredients used in many recipes. Choose the right texture for your recipe and pay attention to quality and origin to ensure you get a high-quality product. We source our coconuts from select partners in the Philippines. The coconuts are processed no later than the third day after harvest to preserve their high nutritional value. This ensures that the shredded coconut not only stays moist but also has a fresh, natural coconut flavor.
Do coconut flakes contain sugar?
Our premium organic shredded coconut contains no additives whatsoever. Since coconuts naturally contain fructose, there is a small amount of sugar in the shredded coconut. However, our shredded coconut is free of refined sugar.
