toasted coconut
Heated tropical flakes
Toasted coconut is shredded or flaked coconut that has been heated until golden brown, intensifying its flavor and adding crunch.
It appears as a topping for desserts, in trail mixes, and as a garnish: She sprinkled toasted coconut over the cupcakes.
The toasting brings out a nuttier, richer taste than raw coconut.
