Coconut butter

Our organic coconut butter is a sweet, soft-melting spread with the aroma of coconuts. For the exotic spread, we gently ground the flesh of organically grown coconuts which are dried and slightly de-oiled. The flesh of the coconut gives the coconut butter a smooth sweet taste. We do not add sugar, sweeteners or other substances. Organic coconut butter is 100 % vegan, lactose- and gluten-free.

The difference between coconut butter and coconut oil

Coconut butter is not to be confused with coconut oil: We often call our coconut butter "the whole coconut in a jar" because next to the fat, it also contains the other ingredients of the coconut. Coconut butter refers to the ground pulp, while coconut oil is pressed from the flesh. The difference in production also influences various other properties: Coconut oil has a mild nutty taste and an oily consistency, while coconut butter is noticeably sweeter and creamier. Other than coconut butter, coconut oil is heat-resistant and therefore ideal for cooking and frying.
