Mango Butter

Mango Butter is ivory/white and is extracted from the kernel of the mango fruit. With a melting point range of 86°F-98.6°F and high oxidative stability, it is used in cosmetic applications because of its extended shelf life.

Note:  When ordering natural butter or oil, it is important to recognize that exposure to elevated temperatures during shipping or processing can affect its texture. In such instances, the butter may become liquefied, but it can be subsequently emulsified and rapidly cooled, resulting in a smoother, more homogeneous consistency upon solidification.  Additionally, a white film may appear on the top layer.  That is normal and is referred to as fat blossom.  It is a thin layer of separated fats from the product.
