Manufacturing Process

Our desiccated coconut is uniformly well dried, has a pleasant coconut taste and aroma, and features a clean white color free from color or material impurities. We strictly follow internationally accepted food safety standards during our manufacturing process as well as during storage and delivery of our product.

We produce high fat and low fat desiccated coconut.  Low fat desiccated coconut is by product of coconut milk or coconut cream powder manufacturing process, and High fat dessicated coconut is produced as this following process : 

  1. Removal of coconut husk,
  2. Removal of coconut shell,
  3. Removal of thick brown coconut skin,
  4. Washing of white coconut meat to remove foreign material,
  5. Blanching of white coconut meat to reduce the number of microorganism to the safe level fit for human consumption within its shelf life,
  6. Cutting of white coconut meat into the desired size,
  7. Hot air blow drying the grated white coconut meat to reduce the moisture content from 19% to less than 3%,
  8. Cooling of desiccated coconut,
  9. Sieving of desiccated coconut to separate desiccated coconut as according to the desired size,
  10. Finally, packing of desiccated coconut.

Dessicated Coconuts are graded by its cutting size, for example, fine grade and medium grade where fine grade has smaller particle size than the medium grade has. One thousand nuts are expected to yield about 130kg of Desiccated Coconut. Production of Desiccated Coconut is a real hard work as the removal of coconut husk, shell and skin are done manually or given the best of current technology are done semi-automatically.
