Product Description
Featuring a luxuriously soft texture and effortless absorption, Cupuacu Butter is a prized ingredient derived from the nutrient-rich seeds of the Amazonian Cupuacu Tree. Celebrated for its exceptional hydration properties, this butter boasts a unique fatty acid profile and is rich in phytosterols, which help restore skin elasticity and promote deep moisture retention.
As demand for natural and effective skincare ingredients continues to rise, Cupuacu Butter stands out for its ability to lock in moisture, improve skin suppleness, and deliver a velvety-soft finish. Its creamy consistency melts upon contact, offering a sensory-rich experience that enhances body creams, balms, and hair treatments.
Beyond its cosmetic benefits, Cupuacu Butter’s origins tell a compelling sustainability story—harvested responsibly from the Amazon, it supports both biodiversity and local communities. Whether used as a hero ingredient in rich body butters or as a natural alternative to synthetic emollients, Cupuacu Butter is a true powerhouse in natural beauty formulations.

Frequently asked questions
What is cupuacu butter?
Cupuacu butter (INCI: Theobroma Grandiflorum Seed Butter) is the cold pressed fat from the seeds of the cupuacu fruit, a close Amazonian relative of cacao. It comes from Brazil and is 100% pure, with no preservatives, colourants or solvents.
How does cupuacu butter compare with cocoa butter?
It is softer and creamier than cocoa butter, melts readily on contact with skin and is valued for holding water well, which gives balms and creams a cushioned, less waxy feel. It has only a faint, mild scent rather than a chocolate aroma.
Can cupuacu butter be used in food?
No, this grade is supplied for cosmetic use only, not for food. It is vegan and palm free, and the specification, SDS and manufacturing flow chart are available on request.
What pack sizes are available?
From 500g up to 25kg, all priced online. For regular volumes, ask us for a bulk quote.
