Desiccated coconut is the grated and dehydrated coconut meat, which is mainly
used in the bakery and confectionery industries.
They are coconut chippings that are rich in minerals.
Frequently used in
cooking and baking,
the gentle sweetness of desiccated coconut compliments cookies and
baked goods in both flavor and added texture.
Desiccated coconut can be
used as an ingredient in savoury and sweet
recipes both to impart a coconut flavour and texture and as a topping or coating. Desserts can be emphasized with the
use of sweetened desiccated coconut. It can be stirred in to cakes, fudgy coconut brownies, pastries, puddings, pies, and cookies for a hint of tropical flavour.
Macaroons and truffles are a popular
product derived from this grated coconut and it is commonly added to
smoothies or sprinkled on salads or sautéed vegetables.
