Desiccated Coconuts

Desiccated coconut is manufactured by drying shredded, crushed coconut after the brown testa has been extracted. Newly matured coconuts have their husks and shells removed. The kernel is de-shelled with a sharp knife before being fractured into smaller pieces with a hammer mill or pin mill. The coconut flakes are steam blanched for around 20 minutes to reduce the microbial population. To reduce the moisture content to 3%, the fragmented kernel is dried in a hot air dryer for roughly 10 hours at a temperature of 80-90°C.

Our Desiccated coconut product is made from fresh and high-quality coconut meat which is freshly harvested by farmers in Indonesia. Desiccated coconut is easier to transport and has a longer shelf life than fresh coconut. Confectioneries, baking, puddings, and ice creams all use it. Desiccated coconut can be used as a texture enhancer, a savory recipe garnish, a top layer dusting, and a raw grated coconut alternative.

Before we pack the product, we do quality control to ensure the quality. People often use our desiccated coconut as the ingredients for making food products, such as cakes, pastries, frozen food, candy, and many other food and beverages.
