Notes
Coco Lopez cream of coconut can be found in the "mixer aisle" near beer and wine in most major grocery stores.
Where can you buy Coco Lopez Cream of Coconut in the Marysville? Stanwood area ? I’ve checked several stores without success.
Thanks
Hi Mike, They have it at QFC in Stanwood in the “mixer aisle” near beer and wine. I know Walmart in Marysville carries it too! It’s used in Pina Coladas, so that’s why they stock it there. I wish they’d put it in the baking aisle as well. Hope this helps? ~ Dusty
