What's Creamed Coconut?

It's a block of fresh coconut that adds a rich, creamy texture to curries, soups and other dishes. We recommend adding it to a number of our Curry Packs like the Homestyle and Ma’s Paretal.

In its solid form, it can be stirred straight into a dish, where it dissolves to produce a thick, rich texture with just a hint of sweetness 😋
