Ilona Edens: These are nice but if you want a very smooth creamy texture, you should strain off the fibres first.

Lisa: This is super thick and WONDERFUL stuff! The product hardens up LITERALLY like a brick in cool temps, so you need to warm it up to soften it before use.
Out of the package, it tastes like you would imagine a whole coconut would taste like if you put it through a food processor until it was fairly smooth.
I love coconut, so I was in heaven just tasting it on a spoon. In fact, I think I am going to try it in place of peanut butter on a piece of toast!!
(a word of caution, because it IS so thick, i recommend not giving it "straight" to children, or anyone who has difficulty swallowing... wouldn't want anybody to choke! You just have to eat it VERY slowly, the same way you would eat a piece of fresh coconut. YES, it IS that thick - refer back to my previous statement "The product hardens up LITERALLY like a brick in cool temps, so you need to warm it up to soften it before use.
I used it as a base for tandoori chicken (thinned down with an equal amount of water) and it was truly delicious! Even my finicky teenager liked it!!!

Chris C.: I used to buy this exact product at the local health food store at a comparable price. However, it is much more convenient to buy the 6-pack using Subscribe & Save! The product is a laminated paper box which securely holds a vacuum-sealed plastic pouch. The pouch contains the perfect amount of fresh, natural coconut for a recipe. There is little waste compared with buying a huge jar. The texture is thick - it is really more coconut butter than coconut cream. When warm, it is the consistency of peanut butter and nothing like the watery stuff you would find in a can. The product will likely have separated when you receive it, so that there will be some hard lumps of coconut fiber and a layer of oil. No problem! Just heat up a cup of water and place the sealed pouch in the hot water. Leave for five minutes and let cool slightly, so that you don't burn yourself. While the pouch is still warm, give it a gentle massage to incorporate the oil and break up any lumps. If you are not going to use the whole package immediately in a recipe, the best way to keep the product from separating is to immediately freeze it in an ice cube tray, and transfer the cubes to a sealed plastic bag....

Lady-in-Maryland: My 2 year old son is allergic to dairy & soy.
Rice milk is empty calories. He likes store bought Almond & Coconut Milks - especially the vanilla, but I didn't like the additives or the low fat content.
Oh, what is a parent to do??
Make home made milk for him (& us) of course!
My son likes coconut, but not too strong. I wanted fat from coconut, without sugar or additives (incl. no thickeners).
After MUCH research, I chose several products, including this coconut cream, to use in making homemade organic Almond-Coconut-Oat milk in a Soy milk maker (so easy, btw). (Recipes & update at the end of this review.)
The packaging for this product is a huge plus (a plastic bag inside a box). It is a small package & leftovers are easily stored (unlike canned milk).
Yet you get a good amount of organic product for the price. I consider it somewhat "concentrated". For example, I use 1/2 a box for 6-8 cups of coconut-almond-oat milk.
Plus, since I read the reviews, I was prepared for the consistency & knew the coconut would be a solid block inside the box at room temperature.
However, the coconut softened...

rick sheehan: I love the fact that this is organic and that it is a concentrate you need to mix with water to get coconut milk. It also has other uses in frostings, etc. The flavor is great, but not too crazy about the texture. It's not smooth despite running the water and concentrate in my Nutribullet. I think next time I will have to run it thru a nut sac to filter out the fiber. But as something you have to mix up, it's not quick for making a last minute smoothie in the mornings so unless you keep some mixed up in the fridge, it's not convenient.
