Cocoa (Cacao) Butter it has a ivory colour with a mild chocolate taste and light aroma. Cacao butter is resistant to oxidation and one of the most stable fats known, it contains natural antioxidants that further prevent rancidity and give it a very impressive storage life of two to five years.
Cocoa butter is a superb rich emollient for dry skin and may be used alone or in creams to moisturise and protect the skin. In it's raw form it has a slight chocolatey smell, however this does disappear with heating. This one is in solid form.
It is an ideal base for body butter or moisturiser, however it will need to be kept in a cool place so it doesn't melt and separate.
USAGE: Approximately 5-80% of your formulation. Use in the Oil Phase.
