coconut ice

Sugary coconut candy

Coconut ice is a British confection made from sugar, desiccated coconut, and condensed milk, typically formed into bars or slabs.

It's characteristically dense and very sweet, often colored half pink and half white: My gran always made coconut ice at Christmas.

The name refers to its snowy appearance, not frozen temperature—it's eaten at room temperature.
