Creamed Coconut (Coconut Butter)

Creamed Coconut, also known as coconut butter or coconut paste, is a ground paste from fresh coconut. It is a good source of concentrated coconut flavour, combining the creamy texture of coconut with more fiber and energy than coconut milk. Creamed coconut can be used as an ingredient for food and beverages that require coconut flavour such as yoghurts, sauces, soups, curries, ready meals and tropical/Caribbean applications. Commonly called coconut butter, it is a good lactose-free butter substitute with natural coconut sweetness and tastes good as it is spread on toast or used as a dip.
