New product- Coconut Powder

Tuesday, April 20th, 2010

For those of you who are lactose intolerant or who simply cannot tolerate dairy, a new alternative which you may not have considered or haven’t tried is coconut milk. Just recently I learned that this product is available in powdered form which is doubly helpful for those who need an alternative as most often alternatives to dairy are not in powdered form.

This is a handy product to take camping as it is easily reconstituted and can be made up as needed.  Also handy for baking when powdered milk is called for in a recipe eg. several of my bread machine recipes call for powdered milk

The box I picked up was Mr. Goudas brand.  It may be available from other companies as well. Hope you find this info helpful.
