Cocada, a coconut candy, has its roots in Portuguese cuisine, but it was significantly influenced by enslaved Africans in Brazil. They adapted the recipe using readily available ingredients like coconut and sugar, transforming it into a beloved Brazilian sweet. The addition of 'cremosa' refers to a creamy, softer texture, and serving it with 'sorvete de creme' (vanilla ice cream) elevates the dessert to a more modern and indulgent experience.

Cocada Cremosa is a delightful combination of sweet coconut, caramelized sugar, and creamy vanilla ice cream, creating a rich and decadent dessert experience.
The primary flavor is, of course, coconut – the sweetness and slightly nutty flavor of grated coconut is central. Caramelized sugar adds a deep, rich sweetness and a subtle toasted flavor. The creamy vanilla ice cream provides a cool, contrasting temperature and a smooth, comforting flavor that complements the coconut and caramel notes. The texture is a mix of the slightly chewy cocada and the melting ice cream, providing a wonderful sensory experience.
Función Premium
Coconut Quality
Use fresh, good-quality grated coconut for the best flavor and texture. Avoid using dried, sweetened coconut as it can make the cocada too sweet and less flavorful.
Creamy Consistency
To achieve the 'cremosa' texture, use a combination of sweetened condensed milk and coconut milk. This adds richness and moisture to the cocada. Stir constantly while cooking to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Caramelization
Pay close attention to the caramelization process. Do not overcook the sugar, as it can become bitter. Aim for a golden-brown color for the perfect depth of flavor. Be very careful when handling hot caramel.
Serving Temperature
Serve the cocada slightly warm or at room temperature to enhance the flavors. The contrast between the warm cocada and the cold ice cream is part of the appeal. Don't serve it straight from the refrigerator.
