ORGANIC Cocolino Spread

Our Cocolino is a spread with around 15g of omega-3 fatty acids (alpha-linolenic acid) per 100g. The fresh, cold-pressed organic linseed oil in this blend with virgin organic coconut oil will keep for a long time in the fridge. The linseed oil is protected from oxidation by the solid virgin coconut fat and therefore does not become bitter as quickly as pure cold pressed organic linseed oil. The addition of sea buckthorn seed oil refines the taste and enhances the benefits of the spread.

To maintain normal cholesterol levels

Cocolino tastes tangy and nutty with a hint of coconut and the fruity taste of sea buckthorn berries. Ideal for breakfast bread. Alpha-linolenic acid (an essential omega-3 fatty acid) helps maintain normal blood cholesterol levels. Just 15g of the spread covers an adult's daily requirement of omega-3 fatty acids, which is equivalent to 2g of alpha-linolenic acid.

Cocolino contains 66 g per 100 g of virgin coconut oil, as well as cold-pressed linseed oil (33 g per 100 g) and 1 g per 100 g of virgin sea buckthorn pulp oil. Eat a varied and balanced diet and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Precious coconut oil is not only of the highest quality in terms of taste, it also has impressive nutritional values: although coconut oil is high in saturated fatty acids, it is a special type of fatty acid. Most of the oil is made up of medium-chain fatty acids known as MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides), such as lauric acid. This lauric acid, which makes up almost half of the fatty acids in coconut oil, is an important component of breast milk. Combined with a varied diet, organic coconut oil makes an important contribution to a balanced diet.

Storage

Due to its high omega-3 fatty acid content, cold-pressed linseed oil is one of the most nutritionally valuable edible oils and is very sensitive to oxidation. It does not normally keep for long and tends to become increasingly bitter after a few weeks. In our Cocolino spread, the linseed oil is embedded in a solid, spreadable vegetable fat (virgin coconut oil) and is thus largely protected from oxidation. In this way, the linseed oil remains tasty and retains its positive nutritional properties over a longer period of time when kept chilled (in the fridge). Cocolino can be kept for up to 9 months in the refrigerator, but the recommended storage temperature for Cocolino is around 8°C (refrigerator). At this temperature, Cocolino can be spread like butter or margarine. At temperatures below 8°C, Cocolino becomes hard and cannot be spread smoothly on bread.

Thanks to the blend of coconut oil, sea buckthorn pulp oil and linseed oil, our Cocolino spread is spreadable when stored in the fridge. It can be used on its own on bread and baguettes or as a butter substitute on jam, cheese and other cold meats.
