Organic Cocoa Butter

Organic Cocoa Butter

Cocoa is a product with multiple uses that will bring you many benefits. Cocoa butter comes from the cocoa bean, which is roasted, crushed, then pressed. Once pressed, the beans give this vegetable oil of 100% natural origin. When it cools, this oil turns into cocoa butter, its color goes from ivory yellow to brown.

This raw butter, cosmetic and food grade, has all the active ingredients present in the bean, giving it recognized anti-oxidant, soothing and slimming properties. It gives a delicious chocolate scent to your preparations.

Our cocoa products are “raw” and have been processed at temperatures below 45ºC, in order to preserve the natural properties of the beans as much as possible.
