Desiccated coconut is coconut meat that is shredded, chopped, or powdered, then dried. It is made by eliminating the coconut fruit’s natural moisture. It has a fresh sweetness and nutty flavour with a snow-white look.
Dessicated coconut can be eaten as a snack, added to cereal, baked products, salads, smoothies, and cooked veggies. Grated coconut is used as a garnish in a variety of traditional South Indian meals. It’s also available in a sugar-free version. It’s perfect for cookies, cakes, pastries, sweets, puddings, and any other coconut-based recipe that can’t utilise raw grated coconut.
