Cocoa butter (Theobroma cacao) also has long been valued for its moisturizing and lubricating properties. A vegetable fat extracted from the fruit of the Cacao tree (Theobroma cacao), cocoa butter reduces cutaneous dryness and improves skin elasticity. Cocoa butter is used to add consistency to cosmetic and skin care products such as ointments, lipsticks, balms, and creams. Containing tocopherols and polyphenols, which have been shown to have antioxidant properties, Garden State Naturals' cocoa butter is an excellent choice for high-quality products with moisturizing, conditioning, soothing, and softening applications.
Natural Cocoa Butter, aka Pure Prime Pressed Cocoa Butter, is tan with a rich chocolatey aroma.

We also sell deodorized, decolorized Cocoa Butter. It has the same moisturizing qualities, but is much easier to add your own unique fragrance and color. It is refined non-chemically with steam and vacuum.
