Desiccated Coconut Fine Organic

Organic desiccated coconut: fine sieve size < 1.7 mm

Fine desiccated coconut consists of dried coconut meat that is reduced in size and sieved to particles smaller than 1.7 mm. This is the finest standard size, with a uniform texture and light color. The coconut comes from Sri Lanka, is certified organic and contains no additives. Vehgro is SKAL-certified for organic products. 

Because of the small particles, the desiccated coconut distributes evenly through batters and dry mixes without leaving coarse pieces. The product fits within vegan and vegetarian diets, is suitable for lacto-vegetarians and is also kosher.

When do you choose fine desiccated coconut?

Fine desiccated coconut works especially well when you want to distribute coconut evenly through a recipe. In cake batter, cookies, muffins and banana bread the fine texture blends easily into the mass. This gives coconut throughout the recipe without obvious coarse pieces. 

It is also practical as a coating for bars and energy balls, because small particles adhere well to the surface. In smoothies and beverages the fine variant blends more evenly than coarser pieces. On yogurt and desserts it provides a subtle topping. In dry mixes the desiccated coconut distributes easily among other ingredients.

Fine or medium?

Choose fine < 1.7 mm when you want to add coconut flavor without much extra texture, for example in batters or coatings. The medium variant < 2.8 mm provides more bite and is better suited for granola, bars and savory dishes. See kokosrasp medium for the coarser variant.
