Coco (Hoho) Plum & Lemon Myrtle Drops

We’ve all heard of quince paste being the perfect combo for cheese, but have you tried plum and lemon myrtle drops with coconut? It’s such a fabulous flavour that adds a touch of fun and sweetness to your Christmas plate. Even better, it only takes 30 seconds to prepare.

Serves: 12

  • 2 x 60g tubs Tucker’s Taste of Australia Plum & Lemon Myrtle Paste
  • ½ cup desiccated coconut

Method:

  1. Pop the Tucker’s Taste of Australia Plum & Lemon Myrtle Paste out of the tubs onto a chopping board carefully, using the tip of a knife at the edge of the paste. Cut into cubes. You’ll get about 12 from each tub.
  2. Place the coconut in a shallow bowl. Toss the cubes into the coconut in batches, using a teaspoon to carefully flip them over until coated.
  3. I love to give them as gifts in old jam jars for something extra special. Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Emma’s Hot Tip: Serve with a wedge of your favourite cheese — vintage cheddar or a creamy blue work really well. Add Tucker’s Taste of Australia flatbreads and crackers and a handful of nuts to the serving plate too.
