FAQ

The difference between the three is the percent of coconut fat contained in each, much like the difference between heavy cream, milk and skim milk. The coconut cream contains 22% coconut fat, the premium coconut milk contains 17% coconut fat and the light coconut milk contains 9% coconut fat.

Coconut milks without added emulsifiers or stabilizers may have a natural separation of water and coconut fat solids. This type of separation occurs when the coconut milk has been exposed to below freezing temperatures, sometimes occurring during transportation or storage in the winter months.

Since our coconut milks do not contain any added gums or stabilizers, when frozen the water will crystallize and separate from the coconut fat changing the texture once thawed. The thawed result will be coconut solids suspended in water instead of the typical homogenous texture.

Though our products are delivered by temperature-controlled vehicles during the colder seasons, the delivery process could accidentally expose the product to freezing temperatures. We recommend warming the product and using a blender or whisk to recreate the smooth consistency if you need to remove the coconut solids.

A bloated, leaky or dented can with a strong foul odour and drastic color change is not fit for consumption and should be discarded.

If there is no bloating nor smell and simply a change in texture, the coconut milk has likely been frozen but is safe to consume.

Most grocery stores carry a variety called Cassia. A variety that is less expensive to harvest and is darker in colour which expresses bitter notes during cooking.

They also differ greatly in coumarin content and health benefits.
