Going COYO For Coconut Yoghurt

Henry and Sandra Gosling were settling in to have a nice, cruisy retirement until one day, Henry – having grown up in Fiji and eaten coconuts his whole life – had an idea to make yoghurt from them.

That thought is now a booming international business, producing truckloads of flavoured probiotic coconut yoghurt and ice cream that ticks the boxes for almost every dietary requirement. Since COYO’s inception, a lot of other coconut yoghurts have sprung onto the market, but there are none as pure and clean tasting as theirs.

I like their natural coconut yoghurt for tropical-style desserts, as well as incorporating it as an ingredient in savoury dishes like seafood salads. COYO is available in most supermarkets in Australia.
