Sweetened or sugarfree Makapuno from Philhybrid

Attended the Digital Influencers Marketing Summit at SMX and one thing that made the event more memorable is having 3 bottles of Philhybrid Puro Makapuno  which is 100% pure glutinous coconut meat. Filipinos love desserts, we all have sweet tooth and nobody can stop us by tasting delectable and sweet products. So having these 3 bottles of Macapuno is like heaven.

The product is packed in 200 ml fancy glass bottle with gold cap and safety label. Label includes company name and address, product net weight, and nutrition labeling. It contains no preservatives and has a maximum shelf life of one year.

According to it's company website, PhilHybrid Inc. is a company engaged in the production and marketing of embryo-cultured true-to-type Makapuno seedlings and started it's operations in August 2004. It was founded to implement the vision of the late Speaker of the Philippine House of Representatives and Agriculture Secretary Ramon “Monching” V. Mitra, Jr. Speaker Mitra was committed to produce, promote and expand the production of Makapuno in the Philippines by making embryo-cultured Makapuno seedlings more accessible to as many interested growers as possible.Philhybrid owns the biggest pure embryo-cultured Makapuno plantation in the country. It also has an Embryo Culture Laboratory located at the University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB) Science and Technology Park, College, Laguna where embryo-cultured Makapuno seedlings are being cultured. It is the PhilHybrid Laboratory Center.

Processed Makapuno strings in sugar syrup is truly heaven. My hubby finished all three bottles and craving for more. My kids tasted this no preservatives product and it became their favorite dessert after every meal.

From the seasite.niu.edu, The macapuno fruit looks like the regular niyog except that it is bigger. Farmers have a way of knocking on the nut to determine if they have macapuno or niyog. The macapuno meat is as thick as the niyog but softer, making it easy to grate. Macapuno is cooked with sugar, sometimes with dayap for flavor, and served as a dessert.
