2.0 out of 5 starsCO-co-coconut confused!
Reviewed in the United States on September 1, 2018
I'm writing this review in hopes that it helps someone else NOT end up with 4lbs. of, albeit,well priced Organic Coconut Flour...I scrolled thru the reviews..... let's face it 800+ 5star, makes you feel confident...but, there IS a weird confusion with this product. I use primarily Almond Flour, but now that Costco is no longer offering 3 lb. @$12....IT'S EXPENSIVE....I thought I would try the Coconut, based entirely on price.....I understood, being that it is Coconut, it was going to taste like Coconut....But, the same way you can hit the beach, on your first summer outing, and get excited by the memories evoked by the smell of someone's Coconut infused Suntan Oil...after a couple of hours the smell sickens you.....I like Coconut., I love an occasional Almond Joy....but, you know that lingering coconut taste that stays at the back of your throat??.....That's Coconut Flour!!!...... Lingering!!!!....I substituted 1/2 a cup in a 2 cup brownie recipe.....and I'm probably ditching the rest of the batch....the first bite was OK....But there is a grittiness that even flaked coconut delivers....For me...it's just too much....I've barely finished 2 brownies, and haven't enjoyed any of it.....It's a weird product...Sorry, I tried.....
