GC Food’s nata de coco cubes are the perfect option for beverage brands, cafés, milk tea shops, and food businesses looking to enhance their products. Each cube is produced through a precise process, from fermentation to final shaping, maintaining an even texture and stable quality. Let’s look at the key benefits that make this product unique.
1.What role do GC Food’s nata de coco cubes play in the F&B industry?
The food and beverage (F&B) industry is growing fast, and as the variety of products grows, popular toppings have become increasingly important. Visually appealing cubes can instantly elevate any dish.
Recognizing this, Vinacoco JSC - a member of GC Food - developed the line of nata de coco (coconut jelly) products. The coconut jelly is consistently and uniformly cut. With a Brix level of 0 to 22, high stability in acidic conditions (pH 3.0 to 4.0), and a solid content of 50 to 80%, these cubes are ideal for combining into a wide range of beverage recipes and desserts.
2. GC Food and the uniform-sized coconut jelly cubes
2.1 GC Food’s reputation
GC Food has over 14 years of experience in producing coconut jelly cubes. The brand has received prestigious awards (2022 National Quality Award, and the 2024 Golden Star Award of Vietnam), recognizing its credibility in the food industry.
Currently, GC Food products are available in 27 countries, including Japan and South Korea - some of the most demanding markets. This demonstrates a tightly controlled production system that follows global quality standards.
2.2 Advantages of GC Food coconut jelly cubes
2.2.1. Visual appeal
The shape is the first thing you’ll notice. Each cube is uniformly square and glossy. This shape is created using a special process, using high-precision cutting machines.
The initial coconut jelly mass is formed by fermenting mature coconut water with Acetobacter xylinum, then is passed through the cutting line to achieve exact shapes. Common sizes like 06x06mm, 10x10mm, or 15x15mm make it easy for F&B brands to select the right size for each product.
2.2.2. Taste and feel
Beyond appearance, the texture and taste experience are another highlight. GC Food’s coconut jelly cubes have a natural crispness that is easy to chew, creating a fun and enjoyable texture. Thanks to modern pasteurization technology, the fiber structure is preserved, preventing the cubes from falling apart in syrup or milk. When paired with soft desserts, you can clearly feel the chewy, crunchy texture.
3. Product categories
One of the key reasons many F&B partners choose GC Food products is how easy it is for this product to fit into different business models. Currently, GC Food offers two main options:
Unsweetened nata de coco cubes: Neutral-flavored and unsweetened, ideal for unique beverages. The natural flavor complements drinks that are not overly sweet, making it easy to match any recipe.
Syrup-soaked nata de coco cubes: A convenient, mildly sweetened version ready to use straight from the package. This product is especially suitable for Horeca chains, saving time in preparation as well as daily operations.
4. Packaging options
GC Food offers a variety of packaging solutions to meet all business needs:
For industrial use and export: coconut jelly cubes are packed in aseptic bags or 200kg barrels, ideal for large-scale production facilities. This packaging provides complete food safety, convenient transport and distribution to international markets.
For Horeca / distribution channels: Formats such as PAPE bags (1kg, 3kg, 5kg, 10kg), cans (850g, 3kg, 18kg), and plastic jars (1kg, 2.5kg, 3.8kg) are designed to fit the usage needs and storage space in cafes, restaurants, and bars.
5. Storage
GC Food’s nata de coco cubes can last up to 12 months at normal room temperature, so they’re easy to store and transport over long distances. This saves storage costs and keeps the quality for a long time.
With standardized sizing and natural flavor, GC Food’s coconut jelly cubes are widely appreciated, giving F&B partners confidence and flexibility to create a wide range of drinks.
GC Food’s flexible R&D and production capabilities are a key strength, ready to meet complex market demands. For more details on the company’s future development direction, partners are invited to visit the GC Food introduction page.
