Production & Sourcing
Harvesting and Husking: Mature organic coconuts are harvested from coconut palm trees. The outer husk is removed to reveal the hard, brown coconut shell.
Separating the Meat: The white organic coconut meat is carefully separated from the brown inner skin (coconut testa) using a knife or specialized tools.
Washing the Meat: The organic coconut meat is thoroughly washed to remove any impurities or debris.
Drying: The washed organic coconut meat is dried to reduce its moisture content. The organic methods ensure that no synthetic chemicals or pesticides are used during this process.
Shredding: Once the coconut meat is completely dried, it is finely shredded or grated to achieve the desired fine grade. The shredding process creates small, fine particles of coconut, resulting in a soft and powdery texture.
