This is a cheap, generic supermarket brand of coconut milk. To be honest the more expensive brands do have a better quality and are more fragrant too. However, this is good enough for dishes where the coconut taste is not that prominent. We made a simple curry and used this to add a touch of sweetness. It worked well and we saved a few bucks using this brand too.

This coconut milk is rich, creamy, and full of smooth coconut flavour. It blends well into curries, soups, and desserts. A versatile pantry staple for adding depth and texture to meals.

this one has little lumps inside the cream which can be broken up, just sometimes makes cooking more time consuming. still good but I prefer the other one I get

Creamy with a natural coconut flavour and no weird aftertaste. Works well in curries or anytime you need creaminess without heaviness.

Nutrition (per 100mL): The product contains approximately 234 kJ of energy, 5.4g total fat (4.1g saturated fat), 1.6g carbohydrates, and 0.9g sugars. Packaging: It comes in a 400mL can. Some user reviews mention the lack of a ring-pull can opener as a minor inconvenience. Storage: It should be kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

one tin can of coconut milk. this is the Woolworths essentials range and is a reasonably priced can of coconut milk. the coconut milk inside is well mixed and doesn’t separate like other brands. goes well in curries and rice

Great for use in curries or even in cakes! Smooth and silky with a great taste to it. Make sure to give it a good shake before use though
