coconut bowls

 

Our natural coconut bowls and spoons are sourced from the Bến Tre province in Southern Vietnam. This tropical region rests on the Mekong Delta and is famed for its high quality coconut plantations. There’s a very good reason why Bến Tre has become affectionately known as the Capital of Coconuts! The organic coconuts are harvested to create household products such as cooking oils, creams and milks. Usually, once the white flesh has been scooped out of the shells, they would be burned along with the trees and the husks.

As a natural product, each eco friendly coconut bowl cultivates its own shape and colour which makes our sustainable bowls one of a kind, in every way. Our reusable coconut bowls and spoons are free from BPA and harmful pesticides, making them perfectly safe to eat your favourite smoothie bowl from!

Our zero-waste approach has countless benefits for both the environment we cherish and the communities that we care about.

 
 
 
 

Coconut shell Bowls And Spoons

Have you ever wondered how to make a coconut shell bowl? We take only what would otherwise go to waste and be burned; it’s recycling in its purest form. Local craftsmen and women who we partner with will cut the shells into the desired shape for a bowl. They’ll sand them down and brush them with organic coconut oil to produce a beautiful, fully sustainable coconut bowl. Once complete, it’s then over to the craftsman’s workshop to etch the unique patterns into the shells. We never work with harmful machinery; the entire process is handmade by nature and by the skilful artisans of the Vietnamese community of whom we work alongside.

When you purchase one of our coconut shell bowl sets, you also receive wooden spoons and a reusable bamboo straw, as well as an invite to download our free healthy eating ebook, curated by our community. Each recipe in our coconut bowls cookbook is easy to follow, nutritious and inspired by a plant based diet. You’ll be able to try you hand at making exciting vegan treats, buddha bowls, and healthy fruit smoothies packed with superfoods such as açai and avocado. Our culinary bundles are made with love, packaged with plastic-free care and shipped responsibly into your hands, fresh from the artisans studio.
