Dehydrated coconut meat in the grated and shredded form is desiccated coconut (DC). A large number of units in India are manufacturing DC which is mainly absorbed by the confectionery and other food industries. DC is also used as a substitute to grated coconut in various household preparations. DC is available in different grades based on the fineness of the material.
