A thin whitish film may occasionally appear on the surface. This natural effect can result from humidity or aeration during filling and does not change the product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt takes 2.5 - 3 pounds of beans to make just one pound of cocoa butter. Most cocoa butter is extracted at high heat, sometimes using solvents, thus destroying the Vitamin E content and often has pesticide residue, but not ours! (It's certified organic AND Australian Customs regularly test it on import).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCacao Butter is the edible natural fat of the chocolate bean, cold pressed to retain its nutritional properties and exquisite natural aroma and flavour. It's traditionally been used as a rich natural moisturiser; as a sexy and decadent massage oil; for soothing babies sore bums; in organic- based cosmetics like lipstick and balm, and in luxury soapmaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuggested Uses: Raw Foodists love it!! Use instead of butter on toast etc, or warm gently until soft (melting point approx 35C \/ 95 F), then add as desired to raw foodist concoctions like blissballs or ice cream, chocolate creations, smoothies or desserts - or smear on skin and lips for the ultimate moisturiser.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNutritional Benefits:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe all know the myth that 'fat is bad for you' - in fact 'good' saturated fats are important for overall health and required by the body for skin and hair quality, hormonal regulation and fertility - and are irrelevant to cholesterol and weight gain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCacao Butter is a good source of Vitamin E (beta- and gamma- tocopherols) and has a unique composition including the essential fatty acids Omega-6 and monounsaturated Omega-9 (oleic acid, like olive oil) as well as stearic acid - an unusual fat in that it neither increases nor decreases blood cholesterol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIngredients: Certified Organic Fair Trade 100% Pure Cacao Butter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1. What does it taste like?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot much really, but it does have the strong aromatic smell of delicious chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2. Occasionally the Cacao Butter has a white-ish film around the outside - why is that?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCacao butter is a very stable product with long shelf life, even stored above room temperature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the cacao butter is melted and poured into tubs, there can be subtle humidity or aeration variations that lead to a thin film of microscopic ‘bubbles’ forming on the surface, which give an opaque white-ish appearance….though rare, this is a completely natural occurrence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Power Super Foods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67754010214722,"sku":"2505","price":72.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0421\/0163\/7286\/files\/CP30_1.webp?v=1792043513","url":"https:\/\/www.naturemart.com.au\/products\/cacao-gold-butter-chunks-raw-certified-organic-500g","provider":"Naturemart Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
