Coconut cream is the rich, fatty layer that rises to the top of tinned coconut milk, sold separately as a thick paste in 160 ml or 400 ml tins. One metric cup (250 ml) weighs around 245 grams or 8.64 ounces. When a recipe calls for coconut cream in cups but the tin lists grams, converting by weight keeps the body of curries, dairy-free whipped toppings, and vegan ganache where it should be.

Coconut cream tins are sold in millilitres or grams, but recipes call for cups or tablespoons. Converting between the four stops you opening a second tin mid-recipe or wasting half of one.

  • thick coconut cream

Coconut milk is the thinner, blended liquid from grated coconut, while coconut cream is the fattier top layer. They are close in weight (240 g vs 245 g per cup); for a closer match to coconut cream from tinned coconut milk, chill the tin and scoop only the solid layer that sets on top. See what 1 teaspoon of coconut milk is in fluid ounces.

Heavy cream is dairy fat at around 36%, while coconut cream is plant fat at around 24%. They are close in weight (240 g vs 245 g per cup); coconut cream swaps in 1:1 for vegan whipped toppings and ganaches, with the trade-off of a coconut flavour. See what 1 teaspoon of heavy cream is in fluid ounces.

Desiccated coconut is the dried, shredded flesh that coconut cream is pressed from. Use the cream for richness in curries and vegan ganache, and the dry form when a bake needs coconut crunch and structure instead of liquid. See our Desiccated Coconut converter.
