Snow ball tender nut is a delicate coconut with no husk, shell, or testa that is round, soft, and white in color. Snow ball sensitive nut can be made with an 8-month-old coconut. Inserting a straw into the top white tender coconut kernel allows you to drink the tender coconut water. A snow ball nut machine invented by the Central Plantation Crops Research Institute (CPCRI) in Kasaragod, Kerala, is used to create a groove in the shell. The snow ball is scooped out of the shell by putting a scooping instrument between the tender kernel and the shell. Because the sensitive coconut water is not exposed to the atmosphere, it preserves its sterility. If the sensitive nut is separately packed and chilled under hygienic circumstances, the shelf life can be extended to more than 10 days.
