Cocoa Butter – Refined

Cocoa Butter has an excellent option for the care of our skin, because it has the property to penetrate deeply into the different epidermal levels, providing freshness and shine.

TEXTURE & GRAININESS | Graininess in butters is a fairly common phenomena caused by different crystallization processes taking place at the same time in the butter. It is due to the various fatty acids melting and cooling at different rates and thus providing a pool of different crystals. This crystallization can occur immediately or can appear months after the product has been made. Especially if the product has experienced temperature variations during storage and transportation. If cooling occurs slowly, the fatty acids can crystallize into large clumps causing graininess. If cooling occurs rapidly, fatty acids will not have time to crystallize at different rates, creating a finished product which is smooth. This does not reflect the quality of the product, as it is a reaction to temperature fluctuations.

The proper method for alleviating graininess is the process known as tempering. Put the pouch in hot water at 80 °C, so that the butter melts and no crystal structure subsists. Hold the butter at that temperature and stir occasionally for 25 – 30 minutes. The steady heat of tempering will help completely melt the fat crystals without degrading the quality of the butter.
