Coconut flour

Harina ng niyog

A fine, gluten-free flour made from the meat left after taking out coconut milk or oil. It turns a by-product into a product with a price.

Who makes it

How it’s made

  1. Collect the grated meat left after pressing milk or VCO.
  2. Dry it well and remove more fat if needed.
  3. Mill it fine, sift it and pack it in sealed bags.

Who buys it

Bakeries, health food stores, home bakers and exporters.

Rules to know

FDA License to Operate and product registration. Requirements change, so confirm with the agency before you start selling.

Where it’s made in the Philippines

Usually made alongside VCO or coconut milk production.

How to start small

If you already make VCO or gata, you already have the raw material. A dryer and a mill are the main purchases.
