Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the authorized distributor for Coco Lopez in Canada? Chicken Pieces is the exclusive distributor for the Coco Lopez Cream of Coconut 57 oz. professional line in Canada. Ordering through the authorized distributor ensures you receive factory-fresh inventory with fast domestic shipping from our Calgary logistics hub, eliminating the complications of cross-border customs, duties, or unexpected brokerage fees.
What is the flavor and texture profile of Coco Lopez? Coco Lopez is the "gold standard" for tropical beverages, made from the cream of sun-ripened Caribbean coconuts. It features a rich, velvety texture and a high sugar content that provides an intense, sweet coconut flavor. Unlike standard coconut milk, it has a thick, syrupy consistency that creates the signature frothy head on a perfectly blended cocktail.
What is the difference between Cream of Coconut and Coconut Milk? This is the #1 search for new bar managers. Cream of Coconut (like Coco Lopez) is a sweetened, processed product specifically designed for drinks and desserts. Coconut Milk and Coconut Cream are typically unsweetened and much thinner. You cannot substitute one for the other in a Piña Colada without significantly altering the sweetness and body of the drink.
Is Coco Lopez Cream of Coconut Vegan and Gluten-Free? Yes. This is a primary search for 2026 inclusive menu planning. Coco Lopez is Certified Gluten-Free and contains no animal-derived ingredients, making it 100% suitable for Vegan and Vegetarian diets. It is also Kosher certified, allowing you to serve a wide range of dietary needs with a single bulk ingredient.
What are the primary back-of-house applications beyond Piña Coladas? While iconic for the original Piña Colada, this 57 oz. bulk can is a "multitasker." It is frequently searched for as a base for coconut-flavored frostings, moist coconut cakes, and tropical sorbets. In savory kitchens, it can be used to add a sweet, creamy finish to spicy Caribbean-style curries or as a marinade for coconut shrimp.
What is the shelf life and storage protocol for the 57 oz. can? Unopened cans are shelf-stable for up to 2 years when stored in a cool, dry place. Once opened, the product is highly perishable due to its real coconut content. You must transfer the remaining cream to a clean, airtight container and refrigerate immediately. For peak flavor, use the opened product within 7 to 10 days.
Can I freeze leftover Cream of Coconut? Yes. If you find yourself with a partial 57 oz. can at the end of a seasonal event, you can freeze it in airtight containers or ice cube trays for up to 6 months. Note that the fat will separate significantly upon thawing, so you will need to re-warm and whisk the mixture back together before use.
Why choose the 57 oz. bulk can over the 15 oz. retail cans? The 57 oz. (1.62 kg) "Big Blue" can is the mission-critical size for high-volume beach bars, resorts, and catering operations. It offers a significantly lower cost-per-ounce compared to retail cans and reduces the labor time spent opening and recycling dozens of smaller containers during a busy shift.
