Cocoa Butter Organic is a highly stable, creamy vegetable butter pressed from organic cocoa beans and left unrefined to retain its natural colour and rich chocolate aroma. This minimally processed butter maintains its full character and natural composition, making it a great choice for formulators who prefer a more traditional, less refined ingredient. Firm at room temperature and melting close to body temperature, it adds structure, glide, and a smooth, cushiony skin feel to balms, lotions, body butters, salves, and soap.

Naturally rich in fatty acids including stearic, palmitic, and oleic acids, cocoa butter helps support the skin’s moisture barrier and reduces transepidermal water loss, leaving skin feeling soft and conditioned. Its excellent oxidative stability can also contribute to longer shelf life in anhydrous products. Use Organic Cocoa Butter when you want the full functional benefits of cocoa butter along with its natural chocolate scent and a less processed option for more natural-leaning formulations.

Organic Cocoa Butter can be used anywhere you want the rich, protective benefits and natural character of cocoa butter, including its light to moderate chocolate aroma. Its firm texture helps add body and structure to anhydrous formulations while melting smoothly on contact with the skin for excellent glide and conditioning. Because it retains its natural scent and colour, it may lightly influence the aroma and shade of your finished product, making it especially well suited for natural or fragrance-free formulations.

To incorporate, gently heat in a water bath until fully melted, then mix with the rest of your oils or butters. Avoid overheating and prolonged high temperatures to preserve quality. Allow products to cool slowly for a smooth, even texture. In cold process soap, add to your melted oils before combining with lye.

Suggested usage levels vary depending on the product type and desired firmness. Use at 3–10% in lotions and creams to boost richness and skin protection, 5–15% in body butters and salves for added structure and conditioning, and 10–30% in balms, sticks, and solid products where more hardness is needed.

In cold or hot process soap, cocoa butter is commonly used at 5–15% of total oils to contribute hardness and a creamy, stable lather.

Tip: Higher percentages will create a firmer, more solid product, while lower percentages provide light conditioning with a softer texture. Adjust other oils and waxes accordingly to achieve your desired consistency.
