Real authentic shea butter

I have been trying to find some way to make better massage bars similar to the ones that I got from LUSH which are called Wicci Magic. Although they help with muscle pain, I needed something a bit more industrial geared toward Fibromyalgia. This meant that I had to find a way to create bars out of ingredients which would be helpful but still wholesome. I chose to use this cocoa butter as one of them.WHAT IS THIS COCOA BUTTER LIKE?I have to say that this cocoa butter is like walking into a dream. The fragrance of the cocoa butter is so delicious that it makes you want to eat it. It really smells fresh and healthful. It is the best cocoa butter I have ever used. It comes wrapped in plastic and sealed. Then it comes in a foil lined zippered bag so you can store it until you use it up.HOW DOES THIS COCOA BUTTER PERFORM?Because this is so unrefined, I found that I needed to add some beeswax to my recipe to firm it up a bit. It will become oily at body temperature, but adding the bit of beeswax to the recipe made it so that it did not mush in the fingers as you grab the sides of the bar. This will need to be taken into consideration in anything you make with it. Many cocoa butters are not quite this way so you might need to adjust your recipe a bit to make it work.HOW DID I LIKE USING THIS?I can not wait to buy another pound of this stuff. I had to remake my bars a few times, but finally got the recipe right. It works wonders on fibromyalgia and is even more effective than the LUSH bars that I was copying. My husband who usually has to help me every night to get the treatments on my legs keeps raving about this stuff. He absolutely loves the smell. I also used this for lip balm and the results are fabulous. It works wonders on my lips which are HARD to find products that will help me.THE BOTTOM LINEThis cocoa butter is divine. It has a wonderful texture, but recipes might have to be adjusted slightly to make bars firmer if you use it for that. Lip balm is divine but some flavors might clash with the fragrance. One of the nicest cocoa butters I have used, I am very anxious to get more as soon as I can. This is such an enthusiastic 5 stars you can call it 10 if you like.I will update in the future with any more observations I have as I continue to use it.

Great!

I used this cocoa butter to make body butter and it worked wonderfully! It has a rich cocoa smell that I just love and adds a firmer texture to body butters or face products. I will definitely be ordering again! I love that it's a good company that cares about quality and sustainability too

Or this product for years without any issue. Ordered recently no longer the creamy chunk of cocoa butter are used to receive. Just a bunch of broken down little pieces. I I was in a bind and had to use it. Otherwise I would have returned it. Unfortunately, I will no longer purchasing from this brand.*** update- seller reached out making everything better. I appreciate that very much!

Love this product however it’s been getting ridiculously high over the past two years. Two years ago it was $15, months ago it was $25 and now it’s over $30. Getting too pricy to purchase for such a small amount of cocoa butter.z

First off, to me, this does not smell like chocolate! Yes you can tell this is a component in chocolate but if you expect it to smell like Ghirardelli or Hershey then you'll be disappointed lol. I normally buy their shea butter, which is top notch, so wanted to try the cocoa butter. I tried it alone as I do with shea butter but found it doesn't melt no where as easily with body heat. So decided to make a body butter. That "chocolate" smell is more powerful than Ali and Tyson put together so use essential oils that compliment instead of hide. I used french vanilla and it at least made it sweeter. The body butter came out EXCELLENT! Melts in my hands instantly and the french vanilla makes it sweeter and lingers instead of the cocoa. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the quality of this butter but the body melting point and smell when used alone is just not for me. I'll always stick with my shea butter.
