Nata de Coco

Nata de Coco is a chewy, translucent jelly made from fermented coconut water, originating in the Philippines and commonly used in desserts, bubble tea and canned fruit cocktails. It is prized for its unique texture and mild coconut flavor. Nutritionally, Nata de Coco is very low in calories and fat while providing a bit of bulk from fiber, with about 2g of fiber per 100g — this can help add texture and a sense of fullness without many calories. It contains virtually no protein or fat and provides little in the way of vitamins or minerals. In practice, Nata de Coco is a light, fiber-containing dessert ingredient that can make sweet dishes more satisfying; however, because it is typically consumed as a processed jelly, it contributes mainly texture and water rather than significant nutrients.
