25 Days of Christmas Giveaways: Day 25 from Tropical Traditions

It's Christmas Eve!  I hope you each have a wonderful Christmas full of God's blessings!  Enjoy your time together with family and friends.  God is so good to us!


Today is our final giveaway, Day 25, from Tropical Traditions.  This is another favorite source of mine for high quality organic coconut oil.  Tropical Traditions is the Gold Label coconut oil as they create their coconut oil (and all products) with the highest quality standards.

Tropical Traditions Gold Label coconut oil is virgin coconut oil, unrefined, and USDA certified organic.  This coconut oil is the good stuff, in the most raw natural state possible.  You can read here more details on where they get their coconuts from and how they turn them into coconut oil.  Very interesting and detailed.  It answers a lot of questions you might have about where does coconut oil come from?  I also liked reading their detailed page about where to buy coconut oil.  They explain what to look for on the label and why.

Tropical Traditions sent me a quart size jar of their Gold Label coconut oil to sample and review.  You all know how much I love my coconut oil.  We talk about it so often here at Healing Cuisine.  I am used to using Tropical Traditions in my kitchen.  I love the taste and texture of it.  It's easy to spoon out of the jar even in solid form.  The taste is very mild coconut flavor.  It doesn't overpower dishes.  That's how you know if a coconut oils is truly unheated and unrefined.  The taste is the most noticeable factor to tell if you are eating truly unrefined and unheated coconut oil or not.  If it has a strong coconutty flavor or even a rancid taste that you can't get past, that's how you know your coconut oil has been damaged/heated or refined.

Tropical Traditions is America’s source for coconut oil. Their Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil is hand crafted in small batches by family producers, and it is the highest quality coconut oil they offer. You can read more about how virgin coconut oil is different from other coconut oils on their website: What is Virgin Coconut Oil?
You can also watch the video they produced about Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil:



Tropical Traditions also carries other varieties of affordable high quality coconut oil. Visit their website to check on current sales, to learn about the many uses of coconut oil, and to read about all the  advantages of buying coconut oil online. Since the FDA does not want us to discuss the health benefits of coconut oil on a page where it is being sold or given away, here is the best website to read about the health benefits of coconut oil.

I used my sampling of their Gold Label coconut oil to make a couple batches of my "Candy Cane" Macaroons.  They turned out wonderfully and the coconut oil did the perfect job as the binding agent in these cookies.  We also enjoy frying our eggs in the coconut oil.  Coconut oil can handle high temperatures without burning, so it is the perfect oil to do all of your cooking and frying with.  My husband is a big fan of his eggs fried in coconut oil.  He loves the slightly nutty taste the coconut oil gives the eggs.  Add a little sea salt and I'm set.  We also add a few tablespoons of coconut oil to our hot coffee.  We blend it in the blender until mixed and frothy.  No need to spend money on lattes anymore!  Try it, you'll love the taste and the creaminess the coconut oil adds to your coffee!  I'm still working my way through the rest of the quart of coconut oil.

Tropical Traditions coconut oil is also great outside of the kitchen.  I use it as my body lotion, body lotion for my infant, lip moisturizer, hair conditioner, and eye makeup remover.  I also use it as my base to make homemade toothpaste.

Tropical Traditions is giving away a 1 quart jar of their Gold Label coconut oil to one lucky USA or Canada winner!  Enter below using the Rafflecopter widget.  Good luck!  And Merry Christmas to each one of you! Thank you for sticking with me through these 25 Days of Giveaways!  : )

Tropical Traditions provided me with a free sample of their quart size Gold Label Coconut Oil to review, and I was under no obligation to review it if I so chose.  Nor was I under any obligation to write a positive review or sponsor a product giveaway in return for the free product.  If you order by clicking on any of my links and have never ordered from Tropical Traditions in the past, you will receive a free book on Virgin Coconut Oil, and I will receive a discount coupon for referring you.
