Coffee bean butter is produced by hydrogenating the cold pressed oil from roasted coffee beans with other vegetable oils. The light hydrogenation process creates a butter with good oxidative stability and a smooth, silky feel.
The market has recently been flooded with coffee based skin care products. Coffee extract is being used in slimming cosmetics due to the natural caffeine content of coffee beans. In addition, the extract has been found to be a powerful antioxidant. The high content of unsaponifiable matter in coffee oil has made it popular in cosmetics too. The oil offers natural protection from ultraviolet light and is becoming a popular ingredient in sunscreen products. Coffee oil is rich in phytosterols which promote excellent moisture retention, quick penetration and good adherence in cosmetics.
Coffee butter is a semi-soft, light brown colored butter with a strong aroma of coffee and is similar in properties to the coffee oil. It does not have caffeine in it as caffeine is a water soluble component of the bean but the aroma is of pure coffee! Use coffee butter at 3-10% in soaps, lotions, creams, lip balms etc. It can be used straight out of the container too. Also try our Mochacchino Butter!

Location: Naples, FL The coffee bean butter smelled great. I mixed it with the shea butter and hemp seed oil for an awesome blend. I'm keeping it for me! It's great on skin and hair, and I even polished a wooden coffee table with it!
