If stored properly, up to 3 years, but only if you don't mind it being a little mushier than normal. Several months if stored in a sealed bag, but it mainly depends on your climate. Hotter temperatures will cause it to go bad sooner. Refridgeration or freezing it may make it last longer.

An unopened Angel flake sweetened coconut bag will keep for many months. It will last even past the expiration date. You can tell if the coconut is still good by feeling it when you do open the bag. If the bag was well sealed, it should be fine for at least six months.

Once opened, you can keep it in the refridgerator for up to a month. It must be kept in a sealed, airtight container. If it becomes dry, soak it in milk. After you strain, use the milk in smoothies or coffee

How do you find canned flaked coconut?

Using a small, sturdy knife, pry out the coconut meat from the shell. It will come out in pieces, but try to keep them as large as possible. Using a swivel vegetable peeler, peel the outer brown part from the coconut meat. Then, shred it with a cheese grater (rotary or standing) or a food processor fitted with the fine shredding blade.
