This entry keeps King Arthur’s unsweetened shredded coconut and sweetened shredded coconut as separate states. The source relationships are not interchangeable, and the ingredient label should preserve the choice.
Match both sweetness and shape
Shredded coconut is not automatically equivalent to large flakes or a desiccated-coconut record. Keep the product description from the recipe or package rather than choosing a nearby source because its volume is defined.
A sweetened product also remains distinct from an unsweetened one in shopping totals. The tool should not remove that difference when both are displayed in grams.
Use the source-cup relationships honestly
The available shredded-coconut references use source cups whose millilitre definitions are not established in the consulted material. They support scaling within their own source relationships.
For a physical-volume conversion, use a suitable documented measurement of the matching product. Do not borrow the density of a differently shaped coconut product to make the result available.
Keep the recipe’s preparation details
If the recipe calls for toasting or another preparation, preserve that instruction and its order. The conversion record does not establish a new density for every prepared state.
Use the original gram amount directly where supplied. The batch-size calculation then remains independent of the cup reference, while the recipe still tells you which coconut to use.
