About Buco salad

Buco Salad is a refreshing Filipino dessert made primarily with young coconut meat (buco), often mixed with condensed milk, cream, and assorted fruits like pineapple, nata de coco, and palm seeds. This creamy dish is typically served chilled, offering a sweet and tropical twist to any meal. Originating from the Philippines, Buco Salad is popular for festive gatherings and as a light dessert to combat warm weather. While it provides hydration and a rich source of fiber from the coconut and fruits, its nutritional profile also includes added sugars and fats from the cream and condensed milk, making it a treat best enjoyed in moderation. The dish reflects the Filipino love for combining local tropical ingredients into indulgent creations, balancing traditional flavors with modern dessert trends.
