Kokosbrood (Dutch: [ˈkoːkoːzˌbroːt] ⓘ; lit. 'coconut bread') is a sandwich topping made of coconut meat which is dried, shredded, and pressed into a loaf mould. Wheat starch and glucose are added to the coconut mix and the loaf. Now sold in pre-sliced packets, traditionally local corner stores would sell slices cut to order from the whole loaf.
