Cocoa Butter (also known as cacao butter) is a natural, cream colored vegetable fat extracted from cocoa beans during the process of separating the powder and liquor from the bean. Our Cocoa Butter is carefully processed to maintain its purity and natural properties.

Common Uses: Cocoa Butter generally has a soft, sweet cocoa aroma and it is one of the most stable fats known. It has been used to moisturize skin that has been exposed to the elements, and to keep skin supple. It makes a wonderful ingredient in lotion bars, lip balms, body butters, and soaps. Cocoa Butter contains natural antioxidants that prevent rancidity. This butter is crude, so very hard in consistency, and its natural range may comprise a light to darker colour, and a medium to stronger scent like a strong bitter chocolate.

Recommended Usage:
 Lotions & Creams: 5 - 20 %
 Balms: 5 – 100 %
 Bar Soaps: 5 - 20 %
 Hair Conditioners: 1 – 5 %

When adding butters to creams and lotions, it might be necessary to gently warm them until the texture can be incorporated into the final product. Using a hand blender, create a vortex with your cream or lotion and drizzle your melted butter to fully incorporate. For addition in soaps, the general rule of thumb is 1 tablespoon per pound. As with most raw materials, results may vary, so we strongly recommend small, lab scale batches prior to any commercial manufacturing.

Caution: Overheating this product will impact its fragrance. Please melt at as low a heat as possible while stirring gently, and use as soon as it is melted.

Shelf Life: This butter should be stored in a cool dark place and has a shelf-life of 1 year when stored properly.

This cocoa butter smells amazing! I am going to make a mocha lip balm with this and the roasted coffee essential oil. Smells so rich and yummy. The organic cocoa butter has a faint chocolate scent if that is what you are looking for. This smell is strong, but delicious.

I believe that you've changed your supplier of cocao butter because when I first starting ordering cocao butter from NDA it was a nice quality and I could kind of take it or leave it. But, this new cocoa butter is so amazing! Straight chocolate out of the jar and performs amazingly in all products. I will never order my cocoa butter from any other supplier as long as you keep this same qualit of cocao butter. The price is on point too! Absolutely love every thing about this butter. I wish I could give it 6 stars!

Love this coca butter. Opening the container, I was hit with the most luxurious cocoa scent. Works perfectly in lip balms, whipped body butters and soaps. if using in whipped butters, add slightly more [about 2 Tbsp.] oils to the mixture than the recipe requires: cocoa butter is hard at room temp and you want an smooth consistency for body butters.

This butter is a staple for almost everything I make from hair butters to body butters to lip balms and even lip gloss! The smell is heavenly! It also helps to reduce skin irritation and redness as well as even out skin discoloration. I've been using cocoa butter for years to reduce stretch marks and scars. You can barely see them now! Did I mention the smell is heavenly? Great quality NDA!

I used this butter on my feet, they were so dry, now they are nice and soft. What I also believe is great about this butter, is it is a dry chunk, you can keep a piece in your purse, in a little bag, and it won't spill or get squeezed out of a tube accidentally. Besides it is all natural, no carcinogenic chemicals to worry about. Men will love it, because it doesn't have a sweet smell, good for those dry rough hardworking men's hands. Give them a jar of pieces for the shop.

Strong scent and works wonders for the skin! I've had dried chapped lips for a long time regardless of the weather/climate, and tried many lip balms in the past but none worked too well. However, this cocoa butter, combined with shea butter, bees wax and little amount of carrier oils healed my lips in just 3 days! My lips are now soft and plumpy :) I also love that this hard butter is already in small pieces for the ease of use. Just ordered more to make some for my grandma who uses lip balms more than I do!

White chocolate. That's what I thought when I first opened the bottle, and why not? It looked like it, it smelled like it, and felt like it, too. A friend of mine even said that she would have eaten a chunk if she didn't know any better. =D At room temperature, it is quite soild, unlike the creamy and buttery NDA's Shea Butter 100% natural (Ghana). However, rubbed on the skin, it melts fairly good with your body temperature and leaves a velvety feel.

I use this Cocoa Butter with ND's Lotion base, Body Butter, and in my soaps. It makes for a fabulous lotion that I cant keep in stock due to high demand. It leaves your skin soft and silky. It also helps with problem dry skin by hydrating it, and locking in the moisture. My customers love how they can wash their hands, and yet they are still soft and silky from the lotion I create using New Direction products. I also use this body butter in my soap as well by melting it down and adding it to my Melt and Pour soap Base. When using the specially blended soap your skin is super soft. Thanks New Directions for carrying such superb items!

May I do another review, 2 years later ? This butter is the best of all. I often buy it and it is always fresh; the smell is so strongly chocolaty, it is a perfect marvel. I use it in a whipped body butter, in lotion bars, in soap, lip balms. Always good results. I just love it.

I really like that this butter comes in chunks, it makes it so easy to work with. It doesn't smell like I thought it would, but I think that's because I've never used the natural butter (only the stuff from the store with added fragrances). It does smell exactly like a hunk of nice dark chocolate. It's really nice stuff.

Smells just like chocolat with some great nutty undertones. Love it. It comes in small chunks - makes measuring for CP soap easy. Great product for many applications - but I think I'll order some deodorized for use in CP soaps with lighter EOs as the cocoa smell tends to overpower.

This is wonderful, quality cocoa butter. When I ordered it I expected it to smell like chocolate (I guess white chocolate) since I had never used pure cocoa butter before. Little did I know that it has a rich, deep dark cocoa scent. I took a piece of the pure butter and rubbed it in my palms to melt it, and it was wonderful! Quite a joy to use, just as it is! It will be fun to experament with. Plus the shipment was very fast. Thank you New Directions Aromatics for the great quality, and great priced cocoa butter, and for giving me the opportunity to get it.

This butter smells fantastic I made lip balms and whipped body butters with this and I'm a newbie at making products for myself. I used cocoa butter as the only butter in the lip balm mixed with orange oil for a chocolate orange flavour, I use it at night and sleep with it on and my lips are so soft in the morning. Don't use the orange in sunlight though just for reference.
