Cocoa Butter News: 25-07-2025
Cocoa Butter – unrefined (Organic) – OBW046
After a long time, finally back in stock!
Due to the African cocoa crisis, we’ve relocated to Peru to offer you the high-quality,
unrefined organic cocoa butter you’ve come to expect from us.
Cocoa Butter – deodorised – OBW008
The price of cocoa butter appears to have peaked. As a result, we’ve been able to reduce the price of our deodorized cocoa butter by 20%.
Why has the price of cocoa butter risen so sharply in recent years?
The price of cocoa butter has risen sharply in recent years due to a combination of factors affecting cocoa production, primarily in West Africa (Ghana and Ivory Coast). Poor harvests due to climate fluctuations, diseases affecting cocoa trees, and the aging of plantations have led to a shortage of cocoa beans, and therefore also of cocoa butter.

Change International shipping costs:
PostNL has significantly increased its international shipping rates.
Especially packages above 10 kg have become much more expensive.
That is why we now also ship via DHL to most countries.
In addition, in the order process you will be given a shipping choice between: 10 kg, 20 kg and 30 kg.
This does NOT apply to Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands.

Chaos and unrest on the world market:
There are often shortages of raw materials worldwide and often long delivery times. In combination with order peaks, it is difficult to keep all raw materials in stock at all times.
It is possible that certain raw materials are sometimes not available or have a longer delivery time than normal.
Foreign orderers pay attention: For transport to other countries, packages can sometimes be delayed for 1 to 3 weeks.
