Cocoa butter has been used to keep skin soft and supple for centuries. When applied topically, it creates a barrier between the skin and environment to retain moisture. Cocoa butter is a stable vegetable fat extracted from cocoa beans and it has a long shelf life.
In soap making, it adds hardness and more conditioning to soaps. Its NaOH saponification value is 0.137. This butter varies in colour from white to light yellow, and has a light chocolatey scent. Suitable for making body butters, lip or body balms. We currently carry two types:
- Deodorized cocoa butter: this is suitable for users who do not want the cocoa butter scent to dominate the product's scent. It is also lighter in colour than the unrefined cocoa butter.
- Virgin cocoa butter: this is the unrefined version which is 100% natural and GMO-Free. Produced without harsh chemicals and hence retains all its natural healing qualities. This product carries a strong fragrance of cocoa butter.

Care Instructions: Cocoa butter is best kept refrigerated below 20°C in a clean, dry and well ventilated area away from strong odours.
Packaging: Our butters are packaged either in sealed transparent plastic bag or airtight plastic jars, not retail packaging. Most of our customers are artisans or personal care manufacturers. Please note that during posting, vegetable butters might partially melt. Some butters may crystallize if they re-solidify too slowly. This does not impact the quality or usability of the butter.
