HOW TO USE
Cacao Butter has a subtle chocolate flavour which also goes well in non-cacao drinks like matcha and health lattes.
Combined with cacao paste or powder and sweetener of choice, you can easily create healthy homemade chocolates.
As a stable saturated fat, it is a good choice of oil to use when cooking - try making popcorn or roasting sweet potato with it. You can also use it as a skin moisturiser or after-sun skin balm.
