Product Description
Cocoa butter refers to an odorless natural fat that contains a slightly sweet cocoa taste, while it is creamy and obtained from the cacao bean, the same source as chocolate. It is obtained in the production of chocolate and cocoa mass through the operations of fermenting, drying, roasting, and milling the beans and extracting the fat. Cocoa butter is an essential component of chocolate products because of its rich texture and edible smoothness as it melts in the mouth. In addition to culinary use, cocoa butter also applies significantly in the preparation of body products such as lotions and creams due to its moisturizing properties and pleasant aroma.
There are primarily two types of cocoa butter: more natural and deodorant type. Natural cocoa butter, which lacks the rancid smell and taste, is well-suited for chocolates and confections, whereas deodorized cocoa butter, which loses its natural smell and taste, is marketed under the same name for culinary and skincare purposes. It is also rich in natural antioxidants that enable it to fight free radicals, which are considered photocarcinogens.
