Bulk Coconut Milk Powder
$0.00
Source86 supplies bulk coconut milk powder for food, beverage, and nutritional product manufacturers. Derived from the pressed flesh of mature coconuts (Cocos nucifera) and dehydrated into a free-flowing powder, it delivers the creamy texture, fat contribution, and authentic coconut flavor of liquid coconut milk in a shelf-stable, easily handled dry format.
Bulk coconut milk powder is available in a range of fat-content grades and processing forms, including standard spray-dried, freeze-dried, and instant (quick-dispersing) powders, in both organic and conventional to match different formulation and reconstitution requirements. It is sourced from established coconut-producing regions, including Sri Lanka, the Philippines, Indonesia, and Thailand.
Supplied in bulk with custom pack sizes, Source86 provides coconut milk powder to procurement teams, R&D departments, co-packers, and food manufacturers at scale, developing dairy-alternative, plant-based, and coconut-flavored product lines. Certifications, including Organic, Kosher, Halal, Non-GMO, and Vegan, are available upon request.

Grade & Standardization
Fat content is the primary specification variable used to classify coconut milk powder in commercial manufacturing. Higher-fat grades carry more coconut solids and deliver greater richness and creaminess on reconstitution, allowing manufacturers to select an ingredient strength aligned with a specific formulation target.
- 35% fat: Lower-fat grade for applications where coconut flavor and a lighter body are required without maximum richness.
- 40% fat: Mid-range grade.
- 50% fat: Higher-fat grade delivering a richer, creamier reconstituted profile.
- 60% fat: High-fat grade for formulations requiring maximum coconut richness and mouthfeel.
Beyond fat content, coconut milk powder is differentiated by processing form:
- Spray-dried: the standard dehydration route; fine, uniform powder.
- Freeze-dried: gentler dehydration that can better preserve flavor and aroma.
- Instant: agglomerated for rapid, lump-free reconstitution in cold or warm liquids, suited to dry beverage mixes and instant systems.
Organic and conventional options are available across grades. Finer parameters, total fat verification, moisture, particle size, microbiological controls, and carrier composition are defined within technical specification sheets and Certificates of Analysis and can be provided as documentation becomes available.
Certifications & Compliance
Source86 supplies bulk coconut milk powder with documentation commonly required for commercial ingredient sourcing and supplier qualification.
Documentation available upon request may include: Certificate of Analysis (COA); ingredient specifications / technical data sheet; allergen statement; country of origin documentation; Safety Data Sheet (SDS); organic certification (for organic variants).
Certifications (availability may vary by supplier, origin, grade, and production lot): Organic · Kosher · Halal · Non-GMO · Vegan. Source86 operates as a BRCGS AA–certified broker, supporting facility-level quality and food-safety expectations.
For quality-assurance teams requiring additional documentation, including heavy metals testing, microbiological reports, or pesticide residue analysis, requests can be accommodated on a per-order basis. Contact our team to confirm documentation availability for your specific compliance requirements.
Production & Sourcing
Source86 sources coconut milk powder from established coconut-producing regions across Sri Lanka, the Philippines, Indonesia, and Thailand. These origins support large-scale coconut cultivation and processing, and multi-origin sourcing helps stabilize supply availability and reduce exposure to seasonal disruption in any single region.
How It’s Produced:
- Extraction: Fresh meat from mature coconuts is grated and pressed to extract liquid coconut milk.
- Homogenization & Pasteurization: The coconut milk is homogenized and pasteurized to standardize the emulsion and ensure food safety.
- Concentration (instant grades): For instant powders, the coconut milk is concentrated to reduce water content while retaining coconut flavor.
- Dehydration: The coconut milk is dried into a fine powder by spray-drying (hot-air drying of atomized droplets) or freeze-drying (freezing followed by dehydration), preserving flavor, aroma, and nutritional properties.
- Agglomeration (instant grades): Instant powders are agglomerated to support rapid, lump-free reconstitution.
- Packaging: Finished powder is quality-checked and packed into bulk formats such as 25 kg Kraft paper bags.
Harvest & Supply Availability
Coconut palms grow throughout the warm, humid tropical regions that supply Source86. Coconuts can generally be harvested year-round, with peak seasons varying by location and climate. Staggered regional sourcing across multiple origins supports consistent inventory and lead times regardless of seasonal fluctuation in any single country.
Applications
- Beverages & RTD: Coconut-flavored smoothies, shakes, lattes, coffee creamers, hot chocolate, and tropical drink mixes; instant grades support quick, lump-free reconstitution in dry beverage systems.
- Dairy & Plant-Based Alternatives: Non-dairy creams, coconut milk beverages, plant-based yogurts, frozen desserts, and vegan cheese systems requiring a creamy, coconut-derived base.
- Bakery: Cakes, cookies, muffins, breads, and pastries, where the powder adds coconut flavor, richness, and moisture contribution on reconstitution.
- Sauces, Curries & Soups: Coconut-based sauces, curries, gravies, and soups, providing a convenient dry route to coconut richness without canned or fresh coconut milk.
- Desserts & Confectionery: Puddings, ice creams, sorbets, chocolates, truffles, candies, and fillings needing a coconut base with controlled flavor intensity.
- Instant & Dry Mixes: Instant soups, sauce bases, premixes, and culinary mixes where a shelf-stable coconut milk base simplifies formulation.
- Breakfast & Snacks: Instant oatmeal, cereals, granola, popcorn coatings, nut clusters, and energy/snack bars requiring even flavor distribution in dry systems.
- Nutritional Products & Supplements: Meal-replacement shakes, protein powders, and nutritional formulations where coconut-derived fats contribute flavor, texture, and energy content.
- Private Label & Contract Manufacturing: Suitable for co-packers and private-label manufacturers producing coconut-based and dairy-alternative finished products.
Physical & Functional Characteristics
Free-flowing powder; off-white to light beige to cream, reflecting the natural color of coconut.
Rich, creamy coconut flavor with mild natural sweetness and a subtle nuttiness; complements both sweet and savory systems.
Characteristic coconut aroma, released on reconstitution.
Fine, smooth, dry powder that reconstitutes into a creamy liquid resembling coconut milk; instant grades are agglomerated for faster dispersion.
Low moisture in powder form, supporting shelf stability; contributes moisture and creaminess when rehydrated.
Coconut milk solids rich in coconut fat, including medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs/MCTs).
A source of coconut-derived fats; contains naturally occurring minerals such as potassium, magnesium, and iron, and some dietary fiber.
Coconut-derived and naturally lactose-free; vegan, vegetarian, and dairy-free suitability applies, provided the carrier/anti-caking agent is plant-based.
Functionality
- Provides coconut flavor and aroma to both sweet and savory formulations in a concentrated, dry form.
- Contributes creamy texture and body to finished products once reconstituted with water.
- Functions as a dry, shelf-stable replacement for liquid coconut milk, reducing reliance on canned or fresh inputs.
- Supports binding and creamy consistency in curries, soups, desserts, and reconstituted systems.
- Integrates easily into dry blends, premixes, and instant systems; instant (agglomerated) grades disperse rapidly with minimal lumping.
- Enables precise control of coconut flavor intensity and fat contribution through grade selection (35–60% fat).
- Contributes fat content that carries flavor and supports mouthfeel in dairy-alternative and beverage systems.
Benefits for Commercial Manufacturing
