�� Product Description Kara Coconut Cream Extract is made from pure coconut kernel (creamy extract), sterilized via UHT (Ultra‑High Temperature) and aseptically packed. It contains no preservatives, is halal‑certified, and trans‑fat free. Available Sizes: Common formats include 200 ml, 500 ml, and 1 L sizes. Ratio: Approximately 1 litre = 10 coconuts, 200 ml = 2 coconuts, giving a rich coconut flavor and texture. �� Ingredients & Structure Derived solely from coconut kernel extract, with stabilizers permitted as food conditioners (likely natural gums). Does not contain added preservatives, and is halal‑certified. �� Uses & Culinary Applications Suitable for both sweet and savory uses. Common applications include: Coconut rice, curries, kaya (coconut jam), puddings, jellies, ice creams, beverages. Whipped coconut cream: UHT coconut cream like Kara is favored for vegan or dairy‑free whipped topping. Simply chill the carton, scoop out the solids, and whisk to firm peaks. Ice cream base: Adds creaminess and mouthfeel; it already includes stabilizers (e.g. xanthan/guar) so often no additional thickener is needed. Making coconut ice cream with Kara cream yields better texture than powders or other brands. �� Storage & Shelf Life Unopened: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. After opening: Keep refrigerated and consume within 3 days. Do not freeze. ⚠️ Considerations & Community Notes Scooby fermenting (F2) caution: Coconut extracts containing oils can interfere with kombucha SCOBY due to fermentation. Some Reddit feedback suggests avoiding full coconut oils or extracts with oil content during F2 unless solids are removed. Morphology: Though “extract” suggests concentrated flavor, this product is actually a cream—fatty and liquid—not flavor aroma/essence. �� Summary Table Attribute Details Product Name Kara Coconut Cream Extract Format & Sizes UHT coconut cream in 200 ml, 500 ml, 1 L aseptic pack Base Pure coconut kernel extract permitted stabilizers Additives No preservatives; halal‑certified Typical Uses Rice, curries, puddings, desserts, coconut‑based drinks, ice cream Whipping Works well to whip into vegan whipped cream Storage (unopened) Pantry, cool & dry Storage (opened) Refrigerate, consume within 3 days; do not freeze Kombucha Use Avoid in F2 fermentation if oily—use only clarified solids
