About Product

Organic Coconut Milk Powder

Native to Southeast Asia and many other tropical regions worldwide, Coconuts are a treasured food known for their ability to provide a highly nourishing and unique source of fats and nutrients.

The nutritious fats in Coconuts offer a fast and sustainable source of energy, and coconut's unique blend of vitamins and minerals supports a perfect balance for optimal hydration.

Because coconuts contain abundant raw materials, they are the ideal food for creating easy-to-use and highly versatile food products with limitless applications.

Z Natural Foods Organic coconut milk powder is one of its flagship products known for its creamy, delicious taste and consistency. It is of the highest quality available on the market.

Some research suggests that Coconut may contain the following constituents:

Minerals: Magnesium, Phosphorus, Zinc
Vitamins: Vitamin C, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B-6, Folate, Vitamin E (Alpha), Vitamin K
Amino Acids: Tryptophan, Threonine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Methionine, Cystine, Phenylalanine, Tyrosine, Valine, Arginine, Histidine, Alanine, Aspartic Acid, Glutamic Acid, Proline, Serine
Fatty Acid Content: Lauric Acid, Myristic Acid, Caprylic Acid, Capric Acid, Palmitic Acid, Oleic Acid, Palmitoleic Acid, Linoleic Acid, Linolenic Acid, Stearic Acid
Phospholipids: Phosphatidylcholine, Phosphatidylethanolamine, Phosphatidylinositol, Phosphatidylserine, Lysophosphatidylcholine, Lysophosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidic acid Tocopherols
Sterols: B-Sitosterol, Stigmasterol, Avenasterol Campesterol, Stigmasterol Brassicasterol

Due to its nature, this powder tends to clump, especially if it gets cold:

If clumping occurs, warm the product up, lay the bag on a flat surface, and place a towel over the bag.
Then pound on the bag until the clumps break up.
The towel will help protect the bag from damage.

Suggested Use for easy coconut milk recipes:

How to make coconut milk:

To replace a glass of cow’s milk (8 oz), mix 1 - 2 tablespoons (6g - 12g) of coconut milk powder with water. Coconut milk powder is also delicious when mixed with juice or yogurt or added to your favorite smoothie.
To make “light coconut milk,” mix 1/2 cup (40g) of coconut milk powder with 1 cup of warm water.

How to make coconut cream

To make “coconut cream,” mix 1.5 cups (120g) of coconut milk powder with 1 cup of warm water.

Mixing suggestions

To increase flavor and nutritional profile, combine our organic banana flakes in a smoothie.
