About Conservas de Coco
Turismo Sucre presents these conservas as a traditional Venezuelan sweet associated with the coconut-growing coast. This rendition uses the fresh grated coconut recommended in its notes, cooked with a sugar syrup.
Optional coconut milk enriches the mixture, while cloves offer an aromatic variation. Stirring concentrates the coconut and syrup until the mixture thickens and begins to leave the pan.
The mixture is rested briefly and portioned into small mounds, then left to cool and firm. The publisher suggests small portions for dessert or a snack, with black coffee among the accompanying drinks.
