The McNess Pudding and Pie Mixes were first introduced in 1919. For years they were staples in kitchen pantries across the country. The taste was so delicious that restaurants would use the same mixes to create their pies. 

After an absence of almost twenty years and after many, many customer requests, we’ve brought the dessert mixes back.

These are not instant mixes. They are cooked over the stove the old-fashioned way. You need to add your own sugar (or sugar substitute) to the mix. For pies, we recommend adding butter and egg yolks to create a richer base. (See recipe on the side of carton.) 

Cocoanut Dessert Mix

The Cocoanut Dessert uses the old-fashioned spelling, like you would have seen it if you were alive in the 1920s when it was first introduced. We use real coconut flakes in the mix.

Makes four 9” pies or 24 servings of pudding.

Ingredients: Ingredients: Corn Starch, Desiccated Coconut, Dextrose, Coconut Milk Powder (coconut milk, maltodextrin, sodium caseinate), Natural Flavor, Salt, Bright Yellow Food Color.

Gluten-Free

Contains Dairy, Tree Nut (Coconut)

Also available in Lemon and Chocolate.

    McNess NEW Dessert Mixes

    Posted by Charlie Rivenbark on Jan 11th 2025

    A Nostalgic Delight: McNess Dessert Mixes Are Back! I can’t express how thrilled I am that McNess has brought back their beloved dessert mixes! These were a staple in my family’s kitchen for generations—my mother, grandmother, and aunts all swore by them, and their pies were legendary. When I heard they were reintroducing the Cocoanut, Lemon, and Chocolate Dessert Mixes, I immediately ordered all three. And let me tell you—they did not disappoint! From the first bite, I was transported back to those family gatherings where every dessert was a masterpiece. The flavors are just as rich and authentic as I remember. The Cocoanut mix is perfectly creamy with that classic tropical twist, the Lemon is tangy and bright, and the Chocolate is indulgently rich and smooth. Thank you, McNess, for preserving this delicious piece of culinary history and bringing it back to life. These mixes are now a cherished addition to my pantry, and I can’t wait to share them with the next generation of my family. If you’re looking for unbeatable flavor and a touch of nostalgia, these dessert mixes are a must-have!

    That is why my wife spells it that way

    Happy to have it back after these many years - always wondered why my wife spells it this way rather than the Coconut I was used to - God Bless

    This pudding brings back so many memories of my childhood. My uncle used to sell McNess so we always had a lot of the products in our house. This is absolutely the best coconut pudding I have ever had! Thank you McNess for bringing this back!!
