Description & Uses

Cocoa Butter is a luxurious natural vegetable fat obtained from the cocoa bean during chocolate and cocoa production. Our Organic Cocoa Butter from Peru retains its naturally rich chocolate aroma and creamy character, making it an exceptional ingredient for nourishing skincare formulations.

Naturally rich in fatty acids, Cocoa Butter helps soften dry, rough skin while forming a protective, moisture-retaining layer. It is especially popular in body butters, hand creams, lip balms, and rich winter skincare products designed to maintain smooth, comfortable, healthy-looking skin.

Cocoa Butter is also highly valued by soap makers. Its naturally firm consistency contributes hardness and a creamy feel to handcrafted soaps, while its smooth melting characteristics make it ideal for solid massage bars and lotion bars.

Our convenient wafer format eliminates the need to chop large blocks, making measuring, melting, and blending easier for small-batch makers and professional formulators.

Traditional Uses: skin conditioning, moisture retention, body butters, lotions, soaps, lip care, massage bars, balms, salves, and protective skincare formulations.
