What it is

Organic coconut sap is the sugary liquid tapped from the flower buds of the coconut palm tree. It is a natural sweetener that can be collected and then processed into various forms, such as syrup or sugar.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use coconut sap primarily as a natural sweetener in a variety of food products. It is often found in wholesome snacks, sauces, and baked goods, providing a subtly sweet flavor.

Health notes

In the U.S., coconut sap and its derivatives like coconut sugar are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. It is a source of carbohydrates and contains trace amounts of minerals. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated sweeteners, but specific evaluations for coconut sap's health effects at typical consumption levels are limited.

Allergen info

Coconut is considered a tree nut by the FDA, making it one of the major allergens. However, coconut sap is derived from the flower of the coconut palm, not the nut itself. It is generally not considered a major allergen, but individuals with tree nut allergies should consult with a healthcare provider.
