WHIPPED MANGO BODY BUTTER RECIPE

Step 1

Cut mango butter and cocoa butter into small chunks. The mango butter I had was very soft almost like a lump.

Step 2

Melt the butters in a double boiler. It is not necessary to melt almond oil, if that is your choice of carrier oil. Meanwhile, coconut oil can solidify in colder countries, therefore melt it together with the other butters.

Step 3

If you don't have a double boiler, make one by placing a bowl over a pot of boiling water.

Step 4

After the mixture has melted,  cool it before you add the carrier oil if you are using any.

Step 5

Place the bowl in the freezer until it is set. You don’t want it to be solid just firm.

Step 6

Add essential oils, and arrowroot powder to the bowl. Whip the ingredients together using a hand mixer or stand mixer.

Step 7

Store in an airtight container

Step 8

If stored properly, whipped body butter can easily be stored for up to one year. For best results, store in an airtight sterilised glass jar.
