Tropical Traditions Organic Coconut Flour is made from the fibers from the coconut meat after the oils have been extracted. It is certified organic, unsweetened, and has not been treated with sulfites. Tropical Traditions organic coconut flour is high in dietary fiber and protein, and is gluten-free. It has more fiber than gluten-based grains. It is also gluten-free and this makes a nice alternative to more expensive baking substitutes for those who have gluten intolerance!
Results: I decided to use the coconut flour to make a coconut flour chocolate cake which was frosted with a whipped topping and coconut flakes. The result was a very delicious and moist cake. The flour worked as I would expect. I used it as an ingredient as well as with grease on the pan to prevent sticking. The flour tastes slightly of coconut, but it is not overpowering and does not alter the taste of your baked good too much. It has a slightly sweeter taste than normal flour which I think simply enhanced the taste of the cake.
