Production & Sourcing
Coconut Flesh Extraction: The process begins by extracting the white flesh from mature coconuts. The coconuts are cracked open, and the flesh is separated from the hard shell. The white flesh, known as coconut meat, is then collected.
Coconut Meat Slicing: The collected coconut meat is thinly sliced or shredded into small pieces using specialized equipment. This slicing process creates thin, flat pieces that resemble chips or flakes.
Toasting: The sliced coconut meat is then toasted to achieve the desired level of toasty flavor and golden brown color. This can be done in several ways, such as using an oven or a specialized toasting machine. The coconut chips are spread out in a single layer and toasted until they reach the desired level of toasting. Careful monitoring is required to prevent burning.
Cooling and Packaging: After toasting, the coconut chips are allowed to cool to room temperature.
And you have your Unsweetened Toasted Coconut Chips!
