Coconut sugar & nectar

We are now stocking two 100% natural, whole food, low GI (35) coconut sweeteners.

Coconut Sugar is made only of 100% pure coconut sap that is harvested every 6 hours. No anti-fermentation agents are used. Coconut sugar is processed naturally through the evaporation of coconut sap until it has become granular.

It has a delicious flavor and aroma with a creamy appearance and caramel sweetness of coconut. It is similar in appearance to other natural sweeteners like rapadura and can be used in the same way for cooking, baking, coffee, juices, cakes, pastries, confectionery, sweetener for sauces.

The Nectar is a syrup that is not as evaporated, so has a similar flavour but not quite as intense. This could be used in recipes that normally use honey, maple syrup or agave.

Ingredients: 100% sap from the flower of the coconut tree

Some of the oil may have seperated out in transit from Sri Lanka. To mix back in, place the jar in warm water till the contents have softened. Then mix togther with a knife, or zizz up in a food processor.

Zenian Creamed Coconut

This is 100% pure, organic, unsweetened coconut flesh from a fresh, mature coconut. It's dehydrated, then ground to make a semi-solid creamy-white paste.

Traditionally this is used in curries, or in other Indian, Thai or Caribbean cooking. It's like a concentrated form of coconut cream.

Uses:

• can be diluted with hot water to make a coconut cream substitute (especially useful if you only want a small amount and don't want to open a whole tin)
• temper the heat of curries
• add good fats to soups
• thicken soups, stews or casseroles
• add tropical flavour to many dishes
• blend into smoothies
• include in the batter for baked goods
• use in any recipe that calls for coconut butter (which is very similar, just a little lower in fibre)
• makes fantastic sugar free sweet treats like fudge, chocolate and healthy snack bars
• suitable for low carb diets (1.22 grams net carbs per 15 gram serving)

Deb has developed recipes suitable for GAPS patients, or anyone on a sugar restricted diet. See Deb's recipe blog for some recipes, including white chocolate, fudge and nutella.

Coconut oils

We now have a range of 3 different coconut oils

• Zenian from Thailand
• Zenian from Sri Lanka
• Green Pastures from the Philippines

See the chart below for the differences between them.

We also have a new infused coconut oil which also contains cod liver oil, skate liver oil and butter oil which can be ordered from the cod liver page

Please note:

If you are using these oils for therapeutic purposes, they may be more potent than the oil you're currently using. Some people take up to 1 Tbs coconut oil in warm water before meals to increase their metabolism and decrease their appetite. With these oils, we suggest you start with 1/2 tsp before breakfast and gradually build up to a larger dose. We also suggest you only take it before breakfast and possibly lunch.

You should also take care not to take too much coconut oil if you think you may have adrenal fatigue. For some people with tired adrenals, it may be too stimulating to take too much or to take it in water on an empty stomach.
 

Zenian Coconut oil (Thailand)

This is a premium quality, organic, virgin coconut oil.

It comes from Thailand, and is extracted with utmost care using state of the art equipment.

This is an oil you can feel confident using in cooking, your skin care regime, or eating straight off the spoon.

This is a very mild oil without a lot of coconut flavour, so is ideal if you want the benefits of coconut with the versatility to use in lots of different ways.

Zenian Coconut oil (Thailand) Fermented

This extra virgin raw fermented coconut oil is extracted by cold press and centrifuge, from fresh coconuts, harvested close to the factory, (not dried). No chemicals are used, the product is certified organic, and has not been deodorised. It is the best tasting fermented coconut oil we have tried.

It is processed from mature coconuts that are grated and pressed to expel the coconut milk. The coconut milk is stored in a dry and clean room with controlled ambient low temperature over 24 hours of fermentation where the oil is slowly separated naturally with no use of chemicals, bacteria, or additives of enzymes.

It’s warmed slightly to no more than 45'C to remove residual moisture and ensure long shelf life – approximately 2 years.

Raw Fermented coconut oil is more easily digested by people who have difficulty with regularly processed cold pressed coconut oil, and is easier on the adrenals than standard coconut oil. It helps you absorb the nutrients in your fermented cod liver oil (if you can't take butter oil), and it very helpful in reducing Candida.

Green Pastures Coconut oil (Phillipine)

Another high quality Philippine coconut oil brought to you from Green Pastures, who also supply our fermented fish liver oils and butter oil.

It is organic, virgin Coconut Oil processed in a traditional cold-pressed method using only choice fresh coconuts and packaged in a unique small batch process. The quality control procedure ensures a consistent, creamy textured, fresh, mild flavoured coconut oil.

Considered by many discerning customers to be the world's best tasting coconut oil, it is also very high potency, so although dearer than other oils, you don't need to take as much.
