CUPUAÇU BUTTER
The Cupuaçu Butter is obtained by a process of cold pressing of its seeds, where a valuable fat of very high quality is
obtained. Its lipid composition similar to cocoa, added to its softness and high melting point, makes it suitable for the manufacture of chocolate-like products. Moreover, due to this lipid content in its seed, it is also used in cosmetic products, presenting emollient and lubricant properties.
