The Chemistry
Capuacu Butter has excellent moisturising properties. We use it as a plant based lanolin substitute as it also reduces trans-epidermal water loss. It belongs to the same family as Cacao and is one of the Amazonian super fruits. The pulp is used in juices, ice creams and sweets while the fermented seeds are roasted which is used in a drink called Cupulate. The butter is obtained by cold pressing the seeds.
