  • Intense coconut flavor
  • Creamy spreadable texture
  • Clean simple ingredients
  • Versatile dessert use
  • Overpowering sweet taste
  • Frequent oil separation
  • Thick dense consistency
  • Limited broad appeal

Kokada reviews show the brand works as a flavorful coconut-based spread: reviewers praise its intense coconut-caramel taste and creamy, spreadable texture but repeatedly note overpowering sweetness, thick separation, and limited versatility. The product shines as a spoonable treat, toast topper, or dessert accent, yet heavy coconut flavor and messy oil separation deter some buyers.

  • This is a great product if you really enjoy coconut. Luckily, I do! The smell is amazing, but it doesn’t prepare you for it’s actual sweetness. Because of that, use it sparingly, a little bit goes a long way. Use half of what you think you need and you can always add more. It’s a very strong flavor, sort of like a coconut caramel. It’s very thick, similar to a regular peanut butter and it’s perfect spread very thinly on bread. I ate mine like a dessert on a grilled banana/coconut spread sandwich and it was delicious. I wouldn’t use this as a dip because it’s too thick.

  • This is such a yummy, unique treat. It's a natural sugar that is tasty and can be used solo or on a variety of products as a dessert. If you have a sweet tooth, but are steering clear of refined sugar, this is the product for you! The flavor is definitely a combination of coconut and caramel. I've been keeping mine refrigerated and it gets super thick (more so than honey) which is the perfect soft-caramel-consistency for a little spoonful. It also warms quickly to be a little more spreadable if that's your style.

  • I tried the mint chocolate coconut spread from Martie's site for a great price. This spread is great by itself, on top of savory goods, and in recipes. Simple ingredients and not overly sweet or minty.

  • I tried the brownie flavor. The coconut was still the predominant flavor and I'm not sure I would describe the additional brownie flavor as chocolately - it simply lessened the coconut taste in my opinion. The spread was a nice change from peanut butter and wasn't overly sweet. If the price were lower I'd be more likely to buy it again.

  • Kokoda Dunks, the Brownie flavor, was a great snack option for my daughter's school lunches. A bit on the pricey side though for what it is. Purchased due to the simple ingredients, non-gmo and fun flavor (who doesn't love chocolate and coconut). She found it tasty but didn't enjoy how thick the dip was. Broke the pretzel sticks often just trying to get some of the brownie dip. Would get again if the recipe for the dip was perfected more to allow for the intended dipping, until then, it's a pass for now.

  • I really didn’t love this. I’m usually a coconut fan but something about this didn’t do it for me. I also typically try to avoid anything with carrageenan in it so between those two things, I’m not a huge fan.

  • I like it. Really coconut taste. A little bit sweet for me, but still ok. It is very thick, and you don’t need to put it in freezer. Also the jar is made of glass, not plastic.

  • Hot take: tastes exactly like a coconut macaroon. My FAVORITE dessert during Passover is coconut macaroons dipped in chocolate. This spread is just that in butter form. I really like this, but I wouldn't flock to it regularly like I would a nut butter. With that said, I only had the opportunity to try the original. I'd be curious to taste the brownie flavor or one of the others and see how they compare.

  • I love trying new products. On the plus side the ingredients are simple and clean. No sugar. It is a coconut spread so if you are watching your saturated fat intake like me this is a no go. It does spread easily and requires no refrigeration. I wasn’t fond of the flavor. Price point seems to be right on for a product like this.

  • Kokada coconut spread is easy to find in Sprouts. The package looks very cute and taste of coconut spread is delicious. I applied with bread and it's very good for breakfast. I loves that it's sugar free and gluten free. It's less ingredients and very clean product. I highly recommend it.

  • I like the flavor of this spread, it reminds me of something I would get when I'm back in Vietnam/Philippines. I tried this with bananas and it was good! The only con would be it's really sweet so it's not something I can eat in large quantities. The texture is not spreadable so it makes it a little difficult to eat with compared to other spreads. Along with the high price point, I don't think I'll get this again.

  • Coconut spread? Brownie flavor? Don’t mind if I do! The flavor was great. I spread it on top of a graham cracker and I truly enjoyed it. You can still taste the coconut even with the brownie flavor but it ended up being a nice little mixture. The only thing is I wish it were a bit less expensive. I’ll be on the lookout for coupons so I can grab it again!

  • This was just okay and got moldy quickly after opening. Would not buy again.

  • This spread tasted so good!!

  • I was not a fan of this. I like the idea of making a coconut spread, but the taste isn't there for me. It doesn't taste sweet like chocolate to me in the brownie flavor.

  • Kokada was much tastier than I expected. I received the original and brownie flavors to try. I liked that they were vegan and peanut-free (personally, I love peanut butter but I think Kokada is a nice peanut-free option for when I have company). Both the original and brownie flavors were smooth and creamy. I tried them straight from the jar and then spread on crackers. I think these would be wonderful additions to charcuterie boards or just as a fun snack on pretzels.

  • Like caramel made from coconut... which i guess it what it is. I really like it, and I have an affinity for coconut based products (coconut milk, coconut sugar, almond joys). Kokada original spread is super tasty and nice to put on a plant-based yogurt...something tart since the spread is pretty sweet.

  • The brownie flavor is great! You can tell is coconut oil based on the separation that happens every time I take it out, but it pairs well on ice cream, peanut butter sandwiches (a la nutella), and alone! My 5 year old likes it and he is a pain when it comes to different things. I'm looking forward to trying the original next! It shipped really well with no risk of breaking and not a ton of waste IMO.

  • Dreamy and yummy! I bought it for myself and as a gift and we both loved it. I was nervous that the coconut flavor would be super strong and it was not.
