Cocoa Butter – USA Organic Food Grade

Organic Cocoa Butter is not just for manufacturing chocolate anymore, it is also a must have in your everyday beauty regimen. Our cocoa butter is extracted from roasted cacao beans that were grown and harvested in South America. The quality of our organic cocoa butter speaks for itself in the golden color, velvety texture, and slight scent of chocolate. It is packed with antioxidants; therefore, it is great for skin, hair, and heart health.

Well known for being high in polyphenols, which are antioxidants, cocoa butter helps fight the signs of aging and free radicals. This makes it the ultimate skin care secret. Use it to help rejuvenate skin tone and encourage new skin collagen growth. The antioxidants make cocoa butter not only ideal for fighting inflammation, eczema, and psoriasis on the skin, but also if consumed it can reduce inflammation due to heart and autoimmune diseases. So use your cocoa butter to make some homemade chocolate and feel guilt free knowing the added health benefits!

Leaving our skin silky smooth was just one of the many benefits we found from using cocoa butter in our everyday beauty routine. Using it in our body butter, shaving cream, and lip balm it helped hydrate dry skin, reduce the appearance of scars, and calm dermatitis. This all natural, organic product made us feel better knowing we weren’t using harsh chemicals to try and get that younger, healthier skin that we all strive for. We not only enjoyed how beneficial it was to our skin, but we also felt less guilty when we ate our homemade chocolate knowing it was made with the finest ingredients!
