ORGANIC COCONUT, desiccated, medium shred
SKU: N131-1
Hurry up! Sales Ends In
Botanical Name: Cocos nucifera
and Fair Trade
Country of Origin: Philippines
Qualities: Desiccated coconut is simply fresh coconut meat that has been grated and dried. It is available either ground into flour or in various cut sizes (fine (aka Macaroon), medium, and large flakes) as well as different thicknesses. We call our thicker flakes “chips” and offer them in a raw, toasted, or toasted & sweetened version.
Coconut contains no cholesterol or trans fats but is pretty high in saturated fat (7g/oz) and is appreciated for a number of essential nutrients, including dietary fiber, potassium, manganese, phosphorus, iron, copper, and selenium.
Common Use: dried coconut flakes/chips are delicious and very versatile. They are amazing in raw chocolate or energy bars, often found in pie crust recipes, used as a breadcrumb replacer, pretty as a topping for curries or mixed into salads, added to hot cereals or granolas, blended into smoothies (try blending with frozen bananas for a smooth coconut soft serve), or straight from the bag as a satisfying snack. You can easily make homemade coconut milk for drinking or cooking by blending water and shredded coconut together and squeezing it through a cheesecloth.
Storage: Store in a sealed container in a cool, dry place. Refrigeration is recommended for products with higher fat content but is not necessary for short-term storage. Desiccated coconut can be frozen for long-term storage.

Great in cookies
We use Essential Organics for many of the items in our coffee shop. The coconut shreds are excellent in oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. We love that there are no extra sweeteners. We want the real deal, and this has been perfect!

Excellent value and flavour
Excellent value and flavour! Great for making my own coconut milk.

Great product
It’s exactly what I wanted to have.

Wonderful smelling coconut
I love the 5 pounds of shredded coconut that I ordered. Once I opened the package, the smell was heavenly. I will definitely be purchasing more in the future.

Yum!
Huge coconut fan and this was amazing :)
