Hello. I have a recipe that calls for UNsweetened coconut. I have
sweetened coconut on hand. Anyone have any idea how much sugar I
would need to "delete" from the recipe to make the equivalent ???

thanks ...Kristina

I'm not sure .. But you would have to account for moisture content as well,
unsweetened coconut is far dryer than sweetened.

Here we go again... POST THE RECIPE... without the recipe all anyone can offer
is wild speculation.

According to
<http://www.practicalpantry.com/staples/page17.html>

"Do not use sweetened and unsweetened coconut interchangeably. To remove
sugar from sweetened coconut, soak it in a mixture of half milk and half
water for an hour or two in the refrigerator. Drain well and pat dry."
