Coconut Cream Concentrate Giveaway — Healthy Simple Living

THIS CONTEST IS NOW OVER. THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING.

I think Tropical Traditions coconut cream concentrate is the next best thing to fresh coconut! It’s coconut meat dried and ground into a very fine powder, giving it a creamy consistency and high fat content. It retains all the fiber of the coconut, so it is a food and not just an oil. It makes for an especially delicious dessert ingredient that imparts a natural fat and sweetness to make desserts creamy and delicious! But besides desserts like my raw pistachio cardamom burfi (recipe coming this week!)

"Raw Cardamom Pistachio Burfi"

I like to use coconut cream concentrate in soups to make them thicker and richer. I bet it also makes fabulous ice cream (can’t wait to try it this summer!) It’s so good, I even love it plain off a spoon.

Working with concentrated coconut cream is a bit difficult though, because it solidifies under 75F. To soften it first, I put it in a hot water bath and stir until creamy and well blended. You can watch this video on how to prep coconut cream concentrate. Because it takes a bit of work and prep time, you may want to make bigger batches of your recipe. I don’t mind because I think the extra effort is so worth it!

"100% Pure Coconut"

Actually, this is the product that I keep looking at. Admittedly, though, I'd love to try out their deodorant as well, but I'm not sure that's what you meant by “other product”…..

Since going gluten and dairy free coconut has been something I really treasure – I use coconut milk a lot, I love to munch on fresh coconut, drink coconut water, and use shredded coconut in my baking. I've visited the tropical traditions website before b/c I really want to experiment with coconut flour in baking – I haven't bought any yet (I'm a poor grad student) – but it certainly on my wish list of gluten free baking ingredients!

I signed up for the Tropical Traditions newsletter. I looked through their products and was impressed by the wide range of organic gluten-free products, which are of special interest to me. I would love to have a family grain mill!
The coconut cream concentrate looks like it would be fun to experiment with.
