2. GC Food shaped coconut jelly production process

2.1 Fermented fresh coconut water

Ben Tre’s coconut water is pasteurized and then fermented with the Acetobacter xylinum bacteria strain under strictly controlled conditions. After 8 to 10 days, the thick, clear jelly layer will be harvested then washed to remove impurities and the natural sour smell.

2.2 Slicing and shaping

This is the most important step, determining the aesthetics and quality of the product.

The jelly is soaked to expand evenly and then put into the automatic slicing and cutting system to form many different shapes such as heart, star, rod (06x 06x15mm, 06x06x20mm), in string or block form. Each shaped coconut jelly piece has standard thickness, crispness, a clear white surface, and a uniform appearance.

2.3 Adjust and pack

After shaping, the jelly is soaked and washed to balance the pH, then sterilized to ensure safety as well as retain its natural crispness. Finally, the jelly will be packed in bags, cans or plastic jars depending on the specifications.
