Raw cacao butter is where it’s at! It’s a natural fat extracted from the cacao bean of the cacao tree and it’s used as a base in chocolate. It melts easily, sets quickly and gives chocolate the smooth finish we love. It also has skin moisturizing benefits, it’s used as a hair conditioner, and it improves heart health as well. The list goes on regarding the ways to utilize raw cacao butter but of course we like to use it in some of our favorite recipes like our vegan peanut butter cups.
You can buy raw cacao butter at most Whole Foods and Sprouts, or pick up a bag online by clicking on the link below.
