Coconut extract

Coconut extract comes from the coconut fruit, which grows on the coconut palm tree. It is a natural ingredient that is widely used in cooking and baking to add a delicious coconut flavour to a variety of dishes.

To make coconut extract, the white flesh of the coconut is grated and blended with water. This mixture is then strained to remove any solid pieces, leaving behind a fragrant and flavourful liquid that is the coconut extract.

You may see coconut extract listed on food labels because it is commonly used to enhance the flavour of desserts like cakes, cookies, and ice cream. It can also be found in savoury dishes like curries and stir-fries to add a tropical and nutty taste. Coconut extract is popular for its ability to bring a rich and aromatic coconut essence to many dishes.
