FAQs
What is the difference between desiccated and shredded coconut?
Desiccated coconut is very finely shredded — it integrates into batters and blends completely. Shredded coconut has longer, more visible strands — better for toppings and texture. Both are dried, unsweetened coconut meat.
Is it suitable for vegans?
Yes — 100% plant-based.
