My sister called me this morning and asked if I have ever heard of or know where she can get Cream of Coconut. I have heard of it but don't think that I have actually ever seen it anywhere. She checked walmart and her local grocery and could only find coconut milk.....anybody ever seen this?
Cream of Coconut is used in alot of alcoholic drinks...so, maybe try a liquor store?
Also this link might help you out....there's a difference between coconut cream and cream of coconut! Who'd have figured!

wow! you guys are fast Thanks! And a cake is actually what she needs it for....a paula dean recipe. Yellow cake with a mixture of cream of coconut and swt. con. milk poured over it. cool whip and coconut for topping.....sounds YUMMY to me!!!
They have cream of coconut at Walmart....it's back where the margarita "mixers" are for alcoholic drinks....on the top shelf in our Walmart. I use it when I make a coconut cream cake!
It's normally by the mix drink stuff in the store, walmart, heb, etc.... the one I always get is in a can w/ a picture of a pina coloda galss w/ a bird on it... hth
Here in Puerto Rico we have two brands: Coco López and Goya. They carry the coconut cream(sweetened) and cream of coconut(unsweetened)
I have seen both the coco lopez and goya in the local grocery stores. They are usually in the international foods aisle...so yummy!!
I've used Goya! It's great with pineapple juice and a little rum .... but it sounds drool-worthy in a cake.
That is a really good cake. I can only do a little at a time because it is so sweet. Make sure you put a lot of holes in it so the cream gets in every bite. I can always find it down the ethnic isles near the mexican area.
Thank you everyone!!! I called and told her where to find it and now I think I am going to try that cake for myself this weekend

I love the density of WASC. I really want to make this coconut cake. Will it be mushy/too moist after the cake absorbs the coconut liquid mixture?
I have two cans in the fridge & had forgotten about them. I am going to try this in something.
