How to Color Coconut with Video

If you want to know how to color coconut for these coconut cupcakes, I’ve made it very easy for you. These were so cute and good tasting, I won a contest.

A few years ago, I made 180 mini cupcakes for Cupcake Palooza, a cupcake contest held in Nashville. I joined with a few bloggers just for the fun of it. I never expected to actually win second place up against professional bakers!

How to Color Coconut for the Best Coconut Cup Recipe

This is my all time favorite cupcake recipe.  It’s not the typical coconut recipe. It has a unique flavor from freshly ground nutmeg that is in the cupcake and in the frosting.

Usually I stick to white coconut, but today, to make the cupcakes stand out pretty and mesh with our Easter-themed table, I have dyed the coconut various colors. I usually stay away from food dye, but in this case, it’s just the tiniest smattering of food color, so feel free to make your Spring or Easter party more special with these delicious coconut cupcakes.

How to Color Coconut for the Prettiest Coconut Cream Cheese Frosting

Make the most beautiful coconut desserts with colored coconut. Combine colored coconut and make coconut confetti.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 pint size mason jar
  • 1 cup coconut
  • 1 - 2 drops food coloring I especially like the neon colors currently available

Instructions

  • Put water in jar. Add food coloring according to the color you want.
  • Shake jar. Add coconut. Shake jar again, until completely mixed.
  • Lay out on paper towel and allow to dry just a bit to make sure any extra moisture is gone. Store in plastic bags in refrigerator if not using right away.

Notes

If the coconut is too light, separately mix food coloring and water. Mix and add in a teaspoon at a time to darken.
If coconut is too light, add in more coconut and continue to shake until desired color. Experiment with combining colors to create new colors.
Yellow and Green for a more pastel yellow-green. Blue and red for a lavender. Blue and Yellow for various shades of green.

Happy Weekend Friends. I feel the need to bring you a smattering of cheer and goodwill. Sugar free, grain free, gluten free, with keto friendly chocolate whoopie pies. #linkinprofile  https://spinachtiger.com/grain-free-chocolate-whoopie-pies/ 

I hope you’re having the best Saturday you can have. I did a lot of early baking and now it’s me and Peaches watching the PBS Masterpiece Theater. I love my subscription to Acorn and Britbox, PBS. Anyone else an Acorn fan? I love Agatha Raisin, Deadwater fell, Doc Martin, Delicious, Nothing Trivial, 800 Words, The Heart Guy, Murdock Mysteries, A Place to Call Home, Poirot, Mount Pleasant, Father Brown. 
On Brit Box, the funniest show (and uplifting) I’ve ever seen is Mrs. Brown’s Boys. HIGHLY recommend that but beware of some swear words. (It’s Irish)

Taco Tuesday, even if you’re on keto! At first glance you would think you can’t eat this on a low carb diet. Think again. Fish fried with pork panko, sitting in my grain free tortillas (which you can buy in my bakery by the way). You can use a food processor to transform pork rinds into pork panko. I found the pork panko at costco (affordable, finally and they are life changing for a grain free diet).

We cannot control the crazy in our wold right now, but we can control what we eat. This spicy salmon is keto friendly with ground pork rinds giving crunch. Not only seriously delicious, but Omega 3 good for you. 
I choose healthy but I also choose pleasurable food. This is placed atop cauliflower rice and some nice white wine wouldn’t hurt either.  The spicy comes from Trader Joe’s Italian Bomba Hot Pepper Sauce made with fermented  Calabrian chili peppers. It’s my new go to. EASY Recipe coming soon.

My most popular blog post is this New York Strip Steak, 185,000 times this year! And, I get the nicest comments about my method. It’s a pan sear and then to oven recipe, but the tips are what bring success. It’s not a reverse sear, which I’ve done with some other steaks, because I like that method with really thick steak. Strip steaks tend to be thinner and the sear and roast method keeps my steak medium rare. Salt and Pepper are my only seasonings…Maybe a bit of butter and thyme. #linkinprofile https://spinachtiger.com/new-york-strip-steak-recipe/

Tips for the Perfect Steak

* Salt the steak 24 hours in advance. It goes into the meat overnight, adds moisture and enhances flavor
* Don’t cover steaks in the fridge. The outside of the steak should be dry if you want to sear them. Put them on a rack so both sides dry.
* Make sure the steak is dry, before searing. When ready to cook, I used to think my steak needed to come down to room temperature, but I now find that I get a better sear  with a cold steak, as long as the steak is dry. It’s the water that comes out of the steak that prevents that nice sear, also known as the mallaird effect.
* Start with a very hot  cast iron pan.
* Do not add oil until pan is hot.
* Use a round grill press, if you can, but no worries if you don’t have one.

Happy New Year! Fingers crossed🤞🏼. Prayers said. 🙏🏻Celebrating today with carnitas and a black eyed peas dip. 👩🏻‍🍳Lucky black eyed peans mean prosperous. Eating pork is also something about pigs rooting forward. Growing up we ate pork and sauerkraut every New Years. 🥳Today it’s a little bit more modern. The black eyed peas is coupled with black beans, pickled red onion from @thekitchn, pickled jalapeño, cilantro, various bell pepper, lime juice avocado and plenty of salt. You must have the salt to awaken and balance the vinegar. Since last week’s Nashville bombing, my appetite was meh. Today is a new year and I’ve invited company and look forward to all the good every year has, no matter what. Helmet of salvation beats this earth stuff any day! (Recipe will come to the blog this week). SpinachTiger dot com reached 12 years!

Cheeseball and Peaches  have so enjoyed the lockdown this year! This is a rare moment when they are actually cuddling together. They cuddle people more. They have the large deck outside to roam. They race around chasing each other in the middle of the night and for them life is wonderful. Reflecting on the past year, I’m truly an optimist, even in 2020.  Many good things happened, shadowed by Covid fallout some because of Covid. The biggest down for me personally was the lack of adventure, connection, parties, dining out, inviting people over, talking to my customers face to face. These are not shallow things. They are the things that boost the immune system and prolong life. Bread and water shared with people trumps a huge feast eaten alone. So my happiest times this year have been with people I love and the getaway at my friend’s farm. Getting OUTSIDE without a mask, without fear has meant everything. The joy of the Lord is my strength and I pray for a lot of JOY for 2021, for as a believer, it’s never pitch dark.

How warped time is now. Three days ago, bombing in Nashville. FBI says solved. Life goes on. Power restored. Went to my usual Monday morning workout. HOWEVER, my brain and heart can’t catch up this fast. Taking a day to chill, process, and look at the big fat year ahead. Bakery owner, full-time food blogger. Thinking about what new doors to open, what doors I should shut. I’ll leave you with this. 2020 started off amazing! I scheduled my first bakery classes and was so gleeful to be able to make one of my dreams come true. In March they all had to be cancelled. The bakery grew during the lockdown! The blog took a major hit in ad dollars due to pandemic. The blog grew substantially in 4th quarter. The blog broke all $ records this month. The bakery closed for three weeks substantial exposure to Covid (taking care of those infected) I never got it! 34 year old sister in law (ex) died suddenly of pancreatic cancer six weeks after diagnosis in July. Her father died five months later. My step mother’s duties increased a bit due to this. She inherited $10,000 from a separate source. So like everyone else, its been up and down and up and down and I didn’t even mention politics, riots, etc. WOW! However, unlike most people, I’m going to call this the best year of my life and marriage. WHY? I started a prayer call in March, praying 4 to 5 days weekly. It has changed my life, my husband’s life and those who come to pray. It has meant EVERYTHING!  By the way this is a cake I never wrote about. Blackberry w lemon mascarpone. What is the ONE GREAT THING of 2020 you experienced?

Can food make you feel better? Sometimes. But it’s been a rough two days. Remember when I said on Christmas Eve, “may tomorrow be as nice as this day: That didn’t age well. What a time! Great little Christmas morning and then I looked at my phone. A BOMB exploded in downtown Nashville. 😡😢Even though I live miles away, our cell service is still not working. We lost internet and TV as did thousands in five states.  Doug ran to Comcast the next morning to get us a temporary account. The scary thing aside from a BOMB, is how vulnerable we are with no cell service or internet (AT & T) as it was all housed in one building with no back up plan. Did you know our infrastructure is this vulnerable? Many of us still can’t call 911 if we needed to. 🙁We are grateful no residents were harmed from the bomb. We still don’t know the “who” in the remains. We don’t know what to believe. 🤷🏻‍♀️I highly recommend watching the Netflix show, Manhunt Deadly Games (about Richard Jewell (falsely accused) and Eric Rudolph (the actual Centennial Park Bomber). Great insight into serial bombers, lone wolfs, and the FBI. 🙏🏻 for not just Nashville but for America.

Merry Christmas. 🎄In spite of all the bad that came with 2020, today was a good day. I found out my wonderful step mother unexpectedly inherited a nice sum of money which she needs badly and that made my heart sing. ❤️ I’m so thrilled when other people get good things they deserve. I was also thrilled with my two sour dough creations we had tonight👩🏻‍🍳. I am still baking from  Emilie Raffa’s Sourdough Made Simple book, and had to try the spinach dip stuffed braided loaf and the camembert wreath. 😋😋Both were HUGE hits, easy directions to follow and came out perfectly.  We had charcuterie, crab cakes, arugula salad and these breads. I think I may not eat again until next year. By the way those cute keto sugar cookies a few posts back were frozen and then brought out for today. Everyone loved them. I think they are even better after being frozen. 
May tomorrow be as nice as today! We all need a good day.

Make a true Christmas flavored slab pie with cinnamon, vanilla, cardamom, nutmeg, orange, and cranberries. I was inspired to use these flavors watching the Great British Baking Show. I hope one day I get to England. It was supposed to be this year and we all know how that didn’t happen. Prayers and cheer to everyone here. May 2021 get us back to what we used to know. People, travel, breaking bread or eating slab pie together.
