How To Make Frozen Buco Fruit Salad

Buco Fruit Salad
Buco Fruit Salad is the most popular fruit salad in the Philippines. It is mostly popular during Christmas season and festivities like fiestas, anniversaries, receptions and for catering it is the most requested of all desserts.

When buco fruit salad is served in buffets, it is the first to disappear in dessert tables, but do not worry, you can easily make them at home because all the ingredients are available in the market.

You only need a few ingredients like young coconut meats or buco, which can be grated or scooped with a spoon or even sliced whatever you fancy, the buco will taste delicious.

Then you mix the buco meat with other favorite ingredients like imported Del Monte Fruit Cocktail, some nata de coco or coconut gels, some kaong or palm fruits, some condensed milk and some Magnolia All Purpose Cream, so easy.

You can chill the buco fruit salad for two hours to enjoy it right away and freeze the rest to serve it later as frozen buco fruit salad for snack or dessert or anytime of the day, very nice for Philippine climate.

  1. Hi Pressy! Ask ko lang kung anung pwedeng ipalit sa Nata de Coco? Wala kasing mabilhan dito samay samin e un ung pinoproblema ko. Pero ung condensed milk naman meron naman umorder nako sa goods.ph (https://www.goods.ph/carnation-condensada-2987.html), para idedeliver nalang dito sa bahay. Ilang lata din pala ng pineapple ung kailangan kapag 10-15 persons ung kakaen? Salamat sis!

    1. Hi Ashley! For 10-15 persons I suggest you double the recipe and still get some extra servings in case masarapan sila. A substitute for Nata de Coco is gelatine cubes made from gulaman powder or clear and unflavored Alsa gelatine using the syrups you will get from your fruit cocktail and pineapple tidbits, just make sure you reduce the liquid to get firm gelatine cubes.

      I hope your guests will enjoy our pambatong dessert. Thank you for visiting my blog.
