Cacao butter is a type of fat that comes from cacao beans. To harness cacao butter, the beans are taken out of the larger cacao plant. Then they’re roasted, stripped, and pressed to separate out the fat—the cacao butter. The remnants are then processed into cacao powder.
Cacao has been used in medicine for around 3,000 years. It was a favorite ingredient of the ancient Aztecs and Mayans, who even used cacao for currency. More recently, researchers have discovered that compounds called phytochemicals in cocoa might help keep both your body and skin healthy.
Use cacao to make chocolate, as well as some ointments, toiletries, and pharmaceuticals.
