I believe coconut mana is just a brand of coconut oil. Coconut cream can be purchased online: http://www.tropicaltraditions.com/coconut_cream_concentrate.htm
Or make your own by refrigerating a can of coconut milk overnight. The cream will separate from the water. Simply pour off the water, and what you’re left should be about 1/2 cup of coconut cream.
Jeremy is right! Coconut cream concentrate (from tropical traditions) is the same as Coconut Manna (from Nutiva) or coconut butter (Artisana, etc – though OVERPRICED). They are all basically coconut butter and can be made at home by grinding coconut until it turns to butter in a food processor (caution: this takes a loooong time – but works!).
This recipe, watering down the coconut butter – I suppose that you could just use canned coconut milk (the kind you find in the Mexican/Indian/Asian/ethnic food section of the grocery store. NOT the watered down ‘beverage’ kind, but the thick stuff.
Hey Lizzi! I’ve def read different things about coconut products, but this post from The Lazy Caveman is a great reference: http://www.thelazycaveman.com/the-power-of-coconut/
According to The Lazy Caveman himself, to set the record straight:
Coconut Chips/Flakes = Desiccated (dried) Raw Coconut Flesh
Coconut Oil = Extracted from pressed and dried flesh
Coconut Milk = Coconut Flesh + Water, blended
Coconut Cream = Coconut Flesh + Water, blended. Less water than used to make milk
Coconut Butter = Coconut Flesh + small amount of Coconut Oil, blended.
Are we supposed to use both the ghee and the coconut oil or just one of them?
