When adding butter to creams and lotions, it might be necessary to gently warm the butter before incorporating it into the final product. For addition to soaps, the general rule of thumb is 1 tablespoon per pound (15 g / 500 g). As with most raw materials, results may vary, so we strongly recommend preparing small, lab-scale batches prior to any commercial manufacturing.
Shelf Life: Store in cool temperatures (below 25 C) away from light and moisture in an air-tight container. The product may become very soft above ambient temperatures (e.g., 36 C), but will re-solidify upon cooling without affecting its functionality. This butter has a shelf-life of 18 months when stored properly.
