Cocoa butter (Theobroma cacao) is an ideal moisturizing product. It has been used as an ingredient in cosmetics, toiletries, ointments and more. It is known and valued for both its skin-nourishing properties and its strong cocoa aroma.
Aura Cacia Organic Cocoa Butter comes from a village in Peru that produces certified organic and Fair Trade cocoa butter.
What’s the difference between organic cocoa butter and conventional cocoa butter?
Organic oils differ from conventional oils in that the botanicals from which they are derived are grown according to the USDA’s Organic Standards. Our manufacturing facility and all of our organic oils have also been certified organic by the established third-party certifier, Quality Assurance International (QAI).
