What it is
Coconut treacle is a sweetener made from the sap of coconut blossoms. The sap is boiled down until it thickens into a dark, syrup-like consistency, similar to molasses.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use coconut treacle primarily as a natural sweetener and flavor enhancer. Its rich, caramel-like taste makes it a popular ingredient in baked goods, desserts, and sauces, and it can also be used as a topping for pancakes or yogurt.
Health notes
Coconut treacle is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food ingredient. It is primarily composed of sugars, and like other caloric sweeteners, excessive intake could contribute to health issues associated with high sugar consumption. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar sweeteners, but specific evaluations for coconut treacle are not widely published.
Allergen info
Coconut treacle is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
