Raw Cocoa Butter is a nutrient-rich, solid butter packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and fatty acids. It penetrates deeply into the skin, providing intense moisture, improving elasticity, and offering protection. This butter is excellent for smoothing scars, wrinkles, and other skin imperfections, and it’s known for preventing and reducing the appearance of stretch marks.
Melting at skin temperature, Raw Cocoa Butter can be used on its own as a moisturizer or as a key ingredient in skincare products like whipped body butters, balms, creams, and lotion bars. As a vegan butter, it’s a versatile choice for all skin types.
Cocoa New Information – Due to a shortage in cocoa crops internationally there is a tremendous increase in value and demand for cocoa butter. If this does not meet your needs please consider a similar butter as an alternative, such as Cupuacu Butter or Kokum Butter
Raw cocoa butter, also known as theobroma oil, is a solid fat with a pale yellow to light brown color, sourced directly from cocoa beans. These beans are harvested from the cacao plant, then roasted, peeled, and pressed to extract the rich, nourishing butter.
Widely recognized for its role in scar and stretch mark creams, this ingredient is a favorite for its skin-smoothing properties. Our raw cocoa butter is unrefined, pure, and potent—ideal for blending with your preferred carrier oil to treat rough patches, scars, or dry skin. It carries a natural chocolate aroma that’s both warm and pleasant.

I use this butter for a whipped body butter. It was just what I needed to smooth it out and keep it soft and whipped. I also got Mango butter. It's fantastic. I used it all on one batch, so I will be ordering more. Great products and good shipping timing.
I use only Better Shea Butter raw butters to make my own products for Velcryn Gems. The products are superior to anything I have used in the past. Working with Better Shea Butter is easy.
