Picó Coconut Turron (Coconut Nougat), 200g

Picó brand's Turrón de Coco (Coconut Turrón) is a popular modern variation of traditional Spanish nougat. It is characterized by its intense coconut flavor and soft texture.

Basis and Production

Turrón de Coco belongs to the category of "other turrones" (not almond nougat), which are very popular in Spain, especially during the Christmas season.

• Ingredient Focus: Unlike classic turrón (made from almonds, honey, and egg white), this variety is primarily based on shredded coconut and sugar.

• Coconut Content: The coconut content is typically very high at 45%, which explains the dominant flavor.

• Consistency: It is a soft turrón (Turrón blando), but it has a slightly fibrous, moist, and chewy texture due to the shredded coconut, rather than a creamy one.

Taste Experience

• Dominant Aroma: The taste is intensely and unmistakably sweet with coconut.

• Sweetness: The product is rich in sugar and glucose syrup, which gives it a high, satisfying sweetness.

• Mouthfeel: The small, fine shredded coconut is embedded in the sweet mass and provides a slightly grainy, juicy mouthfeel.

Appearance

Picó's Turrón de Coco is usually offered in the form of a rectangular bar and has a light, almost white to slightly yellowish color.
