How is Biochemica® Craft Shea Butter produced? Shea fruit is gathered and boiled, after which the shea fruit is husked and sun-dried. The sun-dried kernels are crushed, dry-roasted and then milled into a powder which is then kneaded in a water slurry until light in color. Cool water is introduced into the aerated slurry to initiate phase separation. Crude shea butter is skimmed off the surface and then boiled to remove any remaining water. After boiling, the crude shea butter is filtered. Biochemica® Craft Shea Butter is typically refined before packaging for use in the cosmetics marketplace.
