Cocadinha da Bahia Products - Coconut Candy

THE COCONUT CANDY

  • A candy from Angola, typical in Brazil, brought by black Africans, who arrived here as slaves, and who introduced it into our cuisine, as well as many other typical Bahian dishes.
  • In popular culture, when someone is considered very important, he’s entitled "King of the black cocada."
  • The coconut is rich in two fats - lauric acid and monolauril – both of rapid digestion, and not stored in the cells. Rather, they serve as fuel to generate energy.
