Shredded unsweetened coconut is dried, grated coconut meat with fine to medium strands. It has a rich, nutty flavor and firm, dry strands that toast to a deep golden aroma; it blends easily into batters, coatings, and toppings, and is sold in fine, medium, or flake cuts. Common uses include baking, confectionery, and savory coatings or garnishes.

Desiccated coconut arose as a preservation method in coconut-growing regions of South and Southeast Asia and spread globally through baking and confectionery traditions. It is produced from mature coconuts whose white flesh is blanched, shredded, and dried to low moisture before packaging.
