Is coconut cream a common item you can usually find at any regular grocery store?

I'm making a recipie that calls for coconut cream (it also calls it lolo) and was wondering if most grocery stores have this or if you usually have to make it yourself. I've never really looked for it before (or even heard of it.) Thanks!Is coconut cream a common item you can usually find at any regular grocery store?
I bought coconut cream and coconut milk from Cub Foods.





The only difference appeared to be the amount of water compared to coconut solid. The milk is about 50/50, the cream is only 30% water.


If you can find coconut milk only, maybe you can reduce it.Is coconut cream a common item you can usually find at any regular grocery store?
I meant, thank you everyone for all of your answers! They rock! Report Abuse

I don't know about America - but here in Australia you can get coconut cream and coconut milk (both different - like the difference between milk and cream!) at any major grocery store. If you can't find them in your stores then go to an asian supermarket. You will definately find them there.
It's not a common item in a typical grocery store. If your particular grocery store has a large ethnic food section, it's possible they'd have it... but your best bet is an ethnic grocery store, especially a Filipino one.





Hope that helps!
ive never heard of it...i think youre going 2 have 2 google it/make it yourself. i think i would have seen it in my store if it had been there (im always looking 4 odd stuff)
i believe most stores would have coconut milk...don't know if it is the same thing as coconut cream
Yes. Look in the section next to cocoa, chocolate chips, etc.
