The company COCOS NUCIFERA was formed on June 29, 2018. It isthe
company that produces a nutritious Bukayo which is one of the sweetdelicacies
here in Laguna most specially in the rural areas. The CocosNucifera or the
coconut tree is called "the tree of life" because of theproducts which can be
made from its different parts, and one of these isthe Bukayo. Bukayo is a
product that can be made from “alangan” or mostof the people in Laguna called

originated in the northern partof Luzon. It is cooked by simmering coconut
strips in a mixture of coconutwater and sugar until liquid heavily reduced. The
mixture is formed intoballs or flat circles and left for a few minutes to harden
but remains theirchewy consistency. The company innovated Bukayo into
nutritious dessertand named it COCOTRITIOUS. “Coco” means coconut and
the word“ tritious” was came from the word nutritious. Nutritious which
pertains tothe flavors that we add in the normal Bukayo, those are the
malunggay,bitter gourd (ampalaya), carrots peanut and squash. Cocotritious
was madebecause now a day, most of the people loves eating sweet treats
likecandies and cakes. And all of these contains too much sugar and that is
