About Coconut Cream Density
Coconut cream is the thick, high-fat layer that separates from coconut milk or is produced by using less water when extracting from coconut meat. It is rich and spoonable, with a density close to water, so we use an approximate value of 1.00 g/ml for conversions — meaning one cup typically weighs about 240 grams. Because fat can separate and the consistency can vary by brand, weighing your coconut cream gives the most reliable results for baking and confectionery.
Cooking & Usage Tips
- Chill a can of coconut cream and scoop off the solid top to make dairy-free whipped “cream”.
- For ultra-smooth sauces and desserts, whisk or blend coconut cream before measuring.
- Use coconut cream in place of heavy cream for curries, custards, and ganaches, but note the stronger coconut flavor.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and use within 5–7 days, or freeze in small portions.
