Butters
This butter is good for when you need the benefits of coco butter but dont want the stiffness it will give your product. It does not have a smell which i though it would have as its unrefined. I wanted the smell but in echange for the softness i think its a fair trade. Its soft chunks. Did well in my body butters

Cocoa Butter Unrefined
Awesome butter! It is not as brittle as some cocoa butters I have used and has a mild scent. It is perfect for lotions and creams where you want the benefits of cocoa but not the strong scent.
