About Melted cacao butter

Melted cacao butter is the rich, creamy fat extracted from cacao beans, a staple ingredient in chocolate making and popular in both sweet and savory dishes worldwide. With roots in Mesoamerican cuisine, this golden-hued liquid boasts a delicate, mild cocoa aroma and smooth texture. It’s packed with healthy plant-based fats, including oleic acid, which supports heart health, and stearic acid, which has a neutral effect on cholesterol levels. Naturally free of dairy and gluten, cacao butter is a favorite in vegan and paleo diets. When melted, it serves as a versatile base for desserts, smoothies, and sauces. While nutritious in moderation, its high calorie density means portion control is key. Additionally, it lacks protein, fiber, and certain micronutrients found in whole cacao products, making it an indulgent complement rather than a sole nutrient source.
