HalalEveryDay Ecuadorian Cocoa Butter 1 lb — Pure Raw, Unrefined, Chocolate-Scented for DIY Skincare

Pure, raw Ecuadorian cocoa butter in a 1 lb resealable pouch — un-deodorized, chocolate-scented, and ready for lotions, balms, body butter, and DIY skincare.

HalalEveryDay's 1 lb Ecuadorian Cocoa (Cacao) Butter is cold-pressed and left unprocessed to preserve its natural aroma, pale-yellow color, and skin-softening fatty profile. This non-GMO, vegan, and Halal-certified chunk-style cocoa butter arrives cut to weight from larger blocks and shipped in a resealable bag, making it convenient for formulators, small-batch makers, and at-home DIYers. Because it is not deodorized, you’ll notice the familiar chocolate scent — a sign of minimal processing and authentic cocoa characteristics.

How will this cocoa butter perform in homemade lotions and creams?

As a stable, high-fat plant butter, Ecuadorian cocoa butter provides structure, firmness, and emollience to lotions and creams. It melts at skin temperature, helps the final product feel silky, and can improve spreadability when blended with liquid oils and emulsifiers.

• Solid at room temperature for shelf stability
• Melts on contact with skin for smooth application
• Add 5–25% of formula depending on desired firmness and occlusivity
• Compatible with oils, butters, waxes, and emulsifying agents

Can I use this cocoa butter for lip balms, salves, or oil sticks?

Yes — its creamy texture and pleasant chocolate aroma make it an excellent base for lip and solid products. It mixes well with beeswax or plant waxes for structural support and with lighter oils for glide and shine.

• Combine with beeswax for firmer balms and sticks
• Blend with fractionated or liquid oils for smoother glide
• Use 10–40% cocoa butter in typical lip balm recipes based on desired hardness
• Natural scent adds a subtle chocolate note to finished goods

How should I store and handle this un-deodorized cocoa butter?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve aroma and extend shelf life. Because the product is shipped in solid chunks and never melted or molded, it’s easy to grate or melt as needed for small-batch production.

• Arrives in resealable bag cut from a 55 lb block for freshness
• Shelf life up to about three years when dry and cool
• Avoid repeated high-heat exposure to preserve natural scent
• Grate, chop, or melt in a double boiler for formula incorporation

Is this cocoa butter suitable for sensitive or vegan formulations?

This product is 100% pure, raw, unfiltered, non-GMO, and vegan, making it a straightforward plant-based butter for many formulations. It’s Halal-compliant and free from added fragrances or deodorization, but anyone with cocoa or chocolate sensitivities should patch-test first due to the natural aroma and constituents.

• 100% cocoa butter with no additives or deodorizing
• Vegan and non-GMO for plant-based products
• HalalEveryDay quality suitable for Halal-conscious customers
• Patch test recommended for users with cocoa sensitivity
