About Oil, cocoa butter
Cocoa butter, also called theobroma oil, is the pale-yellow, edible vegetable fat pressed from roasted cocoa beans, and it is what gives fine chocolate its glossy snap and melt-in-the-mouth texture. Solid and brittle at room temperature yet melting right around body temperature, it carries a faint chocolate aroma and is remarkably stable thanks to its saturated fat, resisting rancidity for years. Along with energy-dense fat, it contains natural antioxidants that help preserve it.
In the kitchen it is the fat that binds chocolate and, blended with sugar and milk solids but no cocoa powder, is the base of white chocolate; it also enriches confections, pastries, and homemade candy coatings. Its stable structure is why properly tempered chocolate stays firm and shiny. Beyond food, cocoa butter is a staple of lotions, balms, and cosmetics. Store it wrapped in a cool, dark, dry place away from strong odors, where it keeps for a very long time.
