Product Description
Our Kokum Butter is a firm, creamy, highly stable butter, making it one of the most resilient natural butters available on the market.

With its distinctive triglyceride composition, Kokum Butter offers deep hydration, intense nourishment, and excellent emollient properties. Its firm, creamy consistency enhances the structure of balms, body butters, lotions, and creams, making it ideal for creating rich, non-greasy, and long-lasting formulations.

Frequently asked questions
What is kokum butter?
It is the natural fat cold pressed from the seeds of the kokum tree (Garcinia indica) and is of Indian origin. INCI: Garcinia Indica Seed Butter.
How does kokum butter behave in formulations?
It is one of the hardest, most brittle natural butters, pale in colour with very little scent. It melts on skin contact without feeling greasy, so it is ideal for firming lip balms, lotion bars and soaps.
How does kokum butter compare with shea and cocoa butter?
Kokum is firmer and less greasy than shea and almost odourless compared with cocoa butter, so it adds structure without affecting your fragrance. Many makers blend it with softer butters for a balanced texture.
