Frequently asked questions
Everything you’ve wanted to ask mission control.
What is Kokotopia?
Probiotic coconut yogurt, made in Sydney from young coconut meat and coconut water. It’s cultured with 15 probiotic strains and fermented twice in a glass jar. Four flavours, zero dairy, zero nasties.
Is it dairy-free and vegan?
Yes. It’s 100% plant-based, with nothing borrowed from a cow. It’s made from coconut, so it’s not for anyone with a coconut allergy.
What does 90 billion CFU mean?
CFU stands for colony-forming units, the standard way of counting live bacteria. Every serve carries 90 billion of them. We measure the count at the end of shelf life, not the day it’s made, so the number on the jar is the number you get.
How much should I eat?
Start with two scoops at a time. It’s potent stuff, and your gut hasn’t been to space before. Enjoy it straight from the jar, over fruit or granola, or blended into a smoothie.
Why is it a little fizzy?
That’s the cultures at work. Our first ferment uses strains that make their own carbonation, so a gentle fizz and a tangy kick mean your jar is alive and well.
Why are there no gums or thickeners?
It doesn’t need them. A second ferment inside the sealed jar builds the set from the inside. Because nothing is forcing the texture, every batch can vary a little: some fluffier, some creamier.
How do I store it, and how long does it last?
Keep it in the fridge (0–4°C) at all times. Unopened, go by the best-before date on the jar. Once opened, enjoy it within [X] days and always use a clean spoon. No double dipping.
What flavours are there?
Four: Young Coconut, Chocolate Mousse, Wild Berries and Passionfruit. Flavours are folded in after fermentation, so they stay bright and the cultures stay busy. See the four flavours.
Where can I buy it?
We’re launching in Sydney soon. Join the waitlist and you’ll be the first to know when jars land, plus where to find your nearest stockist.
Can I recycle the jar?
Yes. Our jars are glass, so rinse and recycle, or give it a second life in your pantry.
