It's apparently as easy as running unsweetened coconut flakes in a food processor for twenty- to thirty minutes. Someone in the comments mentioned finishing it off in a blender.

This stuff was $16 on Amazon. The flakes were under $5 at Giant Eagle, I think. I can't remember.

Thank you, teasel!

I've been wondering what the difference is between coconut butter, coconut oil, and coconut spread (like Olivio brand in the US.)

Does anyone know?

20-30 minutes in the food processor! I don't think I could take the noise. My kitchen is very small, and I would probably blow a fuse, ha!
I wouldn't mind spreading the finished product over toast, or stirring it into ice cream, though
