Coconut cream brings a decadent mouthfeel to ordinary recipes, while providing a creamy alternative for customers looking for plant-based soups and stews. Or, trade standard vegetable stock with a coconut water stock base for a flavor profile that is savory, salty, and sweet!
As millennials continue to drive desire for discovery and innovation when it comes to new foods and flavors, soup consumption is on the rise in many new formats.
