What it is

Coconut cream is a thick, rich liquid made from the white meat of mature coconuts. It is produced by grating the coconut meat, mixing it with water, and then straining the mixture. The cream separates and rises to the top.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use coconut cream to add a rich flavor and creamy texture to various products. It serves as a dairy-free alternative in many foods, commonly found in desserts, curries, sauces, and beverages.

Health notes

Coconut cream is considered a food ingredient and is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is naturally high in saturated fat; the 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans advise keeping saturated fat intake to less than 10% of daily calories. As a whole food ingredient, it is not typically evaluated by bodies like JECFA or EFSA in the same way food additives are.

Allergen info

Coconut is classified as a tree nut by the FDA for food labeling purposes, making it a major allergen.
