Cupuaçu Butter – Unrefined

RidhSa Lipids Unrefined Cupuaçu Butter is a natural vegetable fat obtained from the seeds of Theobroma grandiflorum, an Amazonian tree closely related to cacao. Seed fat is recovered through a documented extraction process and filtered without subsequent chemical refining, bleaching or deodorization. The butter is valued for its emollient properties, characteristic soft-to-firm texture and suitability for cosmetic products requiring rich conditioning. Its fatty-acid composition includes oleic, stearic, palmitic and arachidic acids in varying proportions. Unrefined cupuaçu butter can be incorporated into body butters, creams, balms, hair masks, conditioners and botanical fat blends. Colour, aroma, melting behaviour and composition vary with origin and processing; batch specifications and sourcing details should be confirmed before commercial use.

Overview

Botanical Name	Theobroma grandiflorum (Willd. ex Spreng.) K.Schum.
Cas#	Verify the exact substance CAS against the supplier SDS; botanical seed butter and related extracts may be listed differently.
Color	Cream to pale yellow or light beige; natural variation expected
Method Of Extraction	Seeds are separated from fruit pulp, cleaned, dried and processed to recover fat, commonly by mechanical pressing; some producers use other documented extraction routes. Butter is filtered or settled without subsequent refining, bleaching or deodorization for the unrefined grade.
Constituents	Triglycerides containing oleic, stearic, palmitic and arachidic fatty acids, with smaller amounts of linoleic and other acids. Exact proportions depend on origin and processing; request a batch-specific GC-FAME fatty-acid profile before publishing numerical limits.
Solubility	Insoluble in water; blends with compatible fats and oils upon melting; soluble in appropriate nonpolar organic solvents.
Specific Gravity	No universal grade specification confirmed; determine density of molten butter at a stated temperature using an agreed method.
Flash Point	Not routinely determined for this nonvolatile vegetable fat; obtain a measured, method-specific value if required.

Benefits

Provides emollience and a conditioned skin feel; supports rich moisturizers and balms; contributes softness and manageability in haircare; helps reduce transepidermal moisture loss as part of a formulated product; offers a distinctive Amazonian botanical ingredient story.

Uses

Body butters, moisturizing creams, lip balms, hand and foot balms, soaps, hair conditioners, hair masks, leave-in treatments, massage bars and custom botanical butter blends.

What is unrefined cupuaçu butter?

It is fat recovered from Theobroma grandiflorum seeds without subsequent chemical refining, bleaching or deodorization; filtration or settling may still be used.

Is cupuaçu butter the same as cocoa butter?

No. Both come from Theobroma species, but cupuaçu and cacao are different plants and their seed fats have different compositions and sensory properties.

What is the typical melting point of cupuaçu butter?

Melting behaviour varies with triglyceride composition and testing method. Request a batch-specific slip point or melting range rather than relying on a universal value.

Can unrefined cupuaçu butter be used in haircare products?

Yes, subject to cosmetic-grade quality and formula testing. It is commonly incorporated into conditioners, masks and other products designed to improve hair feel.

Does unrefined cupuaçu butter need special storage?

Store tightly closed in a cool, dry location away from heat, sunlight and strong odours. Confirm shelf life and oxidation specifications with the supplier.
