Coconut Cream Concentrate Review & Giveaway – Ends 10/24 – US & Canada

Tropical Traditions

We love Tropical Traditions here at Contest Corner. I’ve been reviewing their products since 2009, and really enjoy their high-quality selection. And today, I have another fabulous Tropical Traditions giveaway for you: One lucky Contest Corner reader will win a 32 oz jar of Coconut Cream Concentrate, so read on!

Tropical Traditions have a great selection of wonderful coconut-based products. A few days ago, I received a jar of their Coconut Cream Concentrate, which is whole coconut meat in concentrated form.
According to the website, this can be used for a multitude of different applications, from cooking and baking to creating drinks and even eating straight out of the jar. I’ve never used anything like this, so I was very curious to see what it would be like!

When I first received my jar, I tasted a tiny bit from the top of the jar, and it wasn’t all that appetizing. Then I had a look at the product page, and realized that this was because you have to prepare the coconut cream before you use it – well, that explains it! :) Here is a helpful instructional video that shows you how to prepare your jar:

Jai and I prepared the coconut cream this morning, and both tried some of the cream straight out of the jar – he thought it was really, really good, but I didn’t care for just eating it plain. I tried adding some of it to my coffee as a non-dairy creamer, as was suggested on the Tropical Traditions site; it lightens the coffee a little bit, but it was still pretty dark, so I added some half and half as well. The coconut cream formed a grainy film on the top, so I honestly couldn’t drink it. I’m not sure if this was due to the fact that I added a lot of of the coconut cream, the fact that I combined it with half and half, or both!

I’m really excited about using this the next time I make curry – you can mix the concentrate with water to create coconut milk, which a lot of my favorite curry recipes call for. The site does mention that it does have a “Grainy” texture due to the fibers, but I don’t think that will matter when it’s cooked into a dish. Jai has also been enjoying snacking on the coconut cream all by itself, so I think we will get a lot of good use out of this jar! :)

    A couple of mos. ago I gave my son in law the book on the history of coconuts from the Phillipees. Even though he is not into health, as he should be, he’s too young to feel so damm tired all the time. Well, to make a long comment short: he was immpressed! Recommended it all, especially people who need to change poor eating habits, to attain good health.

    I’m new customer to Tropical Traditions outfit, and already have to give credit, they are into pure natural ideas and info., they support people like Dr. Mercola, so that my friends, they gotta be doin GOOD!
