Macapuno strings have also been called “coconut sport" or referred to as “mutant coconut." Macapuno is a genetic aberration of the regular coconut tree. It is a naturally occurring of the coconut meat. The result of this abnormal development is a soft translucent jelly-like flesh that fills almost the entire central cavity of coconut seeds, with little to no coconut water. The meat is scraped with a grater that produces long shreds that look like strings and often preserved in sugar water or syrup.
Macapuno Stings is used in many Filipino desserts, drinks, halo halo or as ice cream topping.
