The video was shared on the Instagram page 'Bangkok Foodie'. It was from an outlet called Coco Home in Bangkok where they sell each coconut jelly for 55 baht (130 rupees approx.)
Since the time it was posted, it has received over 23.9 million views and 538k likes. "Coconut Jelly Making in Thailand," read the caption of the post. In the clip, we saw the entire process of making coconut jelly in Thailand. First, the coconut was chopped and peeled in several stages. Sharp knives were used for this. Then, the coconut shell was emptied out and the coconut water was transferred to another container to which gelatin was added. Coconut shavings were then added to empty coconut shells followed by the jelly mixture. This was then wrapped up with cling film and sold to customers!
The interesting process of making coconut jelly from Thailand was quite a fascinating watch for internet users. "I now understand why (boxed) coconut juice overseas costs an arm and a leg. Respect for this trade," wrote a user. "Never realised how much work goes into something like this," agreed another.
