🥥 Overview:
Coconut powder is a convenient and shelf-stable form of coconut, made by drying and finely grinding the meat or milk of mature coconuts.

Ideal for cooking, baking, and beverages, coconut powder adds a tropical, nutty richness without the mess of fresh coconut. It’s commonly used in curries, smoothies, desserts, and vegan recipes.
