Buying cocoa butter: why quality matters and what to look out for
Looking for real, pure cocoa butter? You’re not alone.
More and more people are discovering the benefits of natural ingredients in food, skincare, and homemade products.
Buying cocoa butter might seem simple, but the differences in quality are significant. In this article, we explain what cocoa butter is, how you can use it, and why Cacaogenot is the preferred choice for those who want 100% pure and unrefined.
What is cocoa butter?
Cocoa butter is the natural fat from the cacao bean, derived from the fruit of the cacao tree. This fat has a soft, creamy texture and melts at body temperature. Cocoa butter has been used in chocolate for centuries but also has countless other applications.
At Cacaogenot, you’ll only find unrefined cocoa butter. This means the butter is processed at low temperatures without the use of chemicals. This way, its scent, color, and natural nutrients are preserved. That makes it an excellent choice for anyone looking for high-quality organic cocoa butter.
Uses of cocoa butter
Cocoa butter is a versatile natural product that can be used in many ways. The unrefined variety from Cacaogenot is suitable for both food and cosmetics.
Some popular uses:
- Making your own chocolate – for rich flavor and perfect melting properties
- Natural baking & cooking – as a plant-based fat with a subtle cocoa taste
- Skincare – rich in vitamin E and fatty acids, ideal for dry skin
- DIY cosmetics and soap – easy to work with in artisanal products
- Smoothies and drinks – for a creamy texture and healthy fats

Why choose Cacaogenot?
In a market full of cocoa butter suppliers, it can be hard to make the right choice. Many products are industrially refined, blended with other fats, or only suitable for cosmetic use. At Cacaogenot, we do things differently.
100% Focus on One Product
While many webshops offer dozens of products, Cacaogenot chooses to specialize. We sell just one product: pure, unrefined cocoa butter in bulk packaging. This focus allows us to guarantee quality, keep prices competitive, and genuinely support our customers with helpful information and fast delivery.
Unrefined = Pure Nature
Our cocoa butter is not refined or processed. That means:
- No deodorizing
- No bleaching
- No heating above 40°C
As a result, the product remains rich in antioxidants, fatty acids, and its natural cocoa aroma. This makes it not only tastier for culinary use but also softer and more nourishing for the skin.
Suitable for Both Food and Skincare
Many sellers target either cosmetic or culinary use. Cacaogenot’s cocoa butter is suitable for both because we use only food-grade quality. Whether you’re making bonbons or producing a lip balm, you're working with a safe, natural ingredient of consistently top quality.
Bulk Packaging for Heavy Use
Buying cocoa butter in our 2kg and 4kg packs is ideal for home bakers, chocolatiers, artisan soap makers, and natural skincare brands. The larger the pack, the lower the price per kilo—and you also save on packaging waste.
Our 2kg option is the bestseller, perfect for hobbyists and small business owners who care about both quality and cost.
