Coconut (Khopra / Nariyal)

Description

Sunny Foods brings you naturally dried, aromatic coconut – khopra or nariyal, whichever name you know it by – hygienically packed and delivered fresh across Pakistan. No whiteners, no artificial additives, just pure dried coconut the way it’s meant to be.

Why Our Dry Coconut Stands Out

Sourced from mature, high-quality coconuts and dried to preserve natural flavour and texture, every batch is checked before packing. Available in 250g, 500g, and 1kg, priced from Rs. 350 to Rs. 1,400, with Cash on Delivery on every order.

A Nutrient-Rich Addition to Your Diet

Dry coconut is dense in dietary fiber, which supports digestion and keeps you feeling full longer. It also carries medium-chain fatty acids – easier for the body to process than most animal fats – along with manganese, copper, and iron that support bone strength and immunity. A small daily serving of 20–30g fits comfortably into most diets, including vegan, gluten-free, and paleo eating patterns.

In the Kitchen

Khopra is a staple across Pakistani cooking – from coconut-based gravies and nihari garnish to barfi, halwa, and ladoo. It bakes well into cakes and energy bars, adds texture to salads and smoothies, and works as a satisfying snack on its own. If a recipe calls for a softer texture, soaking it in warm water for 15–20 minutes brings it close to fresh coconut.

Keeping It Fresh

An airtight container in a cool, dry place away from moisture keeps dry coconut good for up to 12 months. For the 500g or 1kg pack, refrigeration helps preserve the natural oils for even longer.

Delivery

We ship nariyal and khopra to Rawalpindi, Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi, and other major cities across Pakistan, with free shipping on orders above Rs. 6,000.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between khopra, nariyal, and dry coconut?

None – they’re the same product. Khopra and nariyal are the Urdu/Hindi names for the naturally dried meat of a mature coconut, also called copra.

How much does dry coconut cost in Pakistan?

Pricing runs from Rs. 350 for 250g up to Rs. 1,400 for 1kg, depending on the pack size.

Can I use dry coconut instead of fresh coconut in cooking?

Yes – it works well in curries, gravies, and sweets. For recipes needing a softer bite, soak it in warm water for 15–20 minutes first.

Is dry coconut okay for someone watching their weight?

It’s calorie-dense, but the fiber and healthy fats help with satiety, so a controlled daily serving can still fit into a weight-conscious diet.
