YOYTi. (Why titanium?)

If we are really talking about coconuts made into into cups then this might help

Food grade paraffin wax as used by cheese makers can substitute for beeswax.

sorry for going somewhat off-topic, but do you treat (=seal) the coconut shells somehow?! plenty of coconut palms of various varieties over here (and gourd "trees") so shells are easy to come by. however i had several shells leaking on me when used as cups -- i presume when removing the flesh the "waterproof" layer gets removed, too.... (only sealant which comes to my mind is bees wax, but that's as common as hen's teeth around here...)

I oil them with flax, tung or walnut oil - as I do wooden items - more maintenance than Ti I am afraid

The only Ti kit I have and use is a Ti chopsticks. It is paper light, has good balance and control. It is also supposed to be rust free and most durable. I am happy with it.
It wasn't also insanely expensive unlike Ti sporks I have seen.

Some of the Ti sporks for sale were around 4 - 8 times more expensive than SS sporks, and looked really ugly having rough corners and edges.

I don't like sporks, i find them to short. I have a long spoon and a separate fork. If i prepare adventure food in a bag i can eat that with the spoon. Both are titanium, my cup is also titanium. I like the touch of titanium to my fingers better when its cold. The pan/pot i use is SS, and i use a muurika. Other then boiling water in my titanium cup i cannot see myself using titanium for pans etc.

I have read many folks don't like sporks. I tried my SS spork eating the grilled chicken wings and rice. It worked quite well. I like sporks.

I have not tried any Ti cups, bowls and pots. If they change taste of drinks and food, then it shall be big No No.

My Ti chopsticks don't change taste of food at all.

Titanium does not change the taste of things, it is tasteless and odorless.
