Certified Organic, unrefined, Fairtrade Cocoa Butter (300g)
£7.95
Produced in Kenya from a Fair-trade Cooperative, this 300g bag of Certified Organic, unrefined Cocoa butter is obtained from the roasted seed of the West African Cocoa bean.
It has been cold-pressed using the whole bean thus retaining vital antioxidants. This cold-pressing process uses only the heat from the friction caused when pressing the bean – unlike the excessive heat in traditional cocoa butter which does not protect the antioxidants.
Cold-pressing process retains a light ‘chocolately’ aroma.

This Cocoa butter is Food Grade so can be used in cooking.
The Cocoa beans are souced from small-scale farmers in Uganda – mainly family units who farm a combination of cocoa, coffee and papaya. The beans are the processed in Kenya.
This cocoa butter is packed with vitamin E and can be used as an emollient, skin softener and protectant.
Cocoa butter gives a decadent flavour and a creamy texture to any lip balm.
It can be melted into body creams to thicken them and to help combat dryness and improve skin flexibility.
