• The unrefined butter is attained from soaked seeds of the tree that have been ground and squeezed - it comes out as a yellow butter.
• Mafura butter is completely non toxic and has been used in Africa for centuries as a body and haircare product.
• Mafura butter is extremely high in palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, linoloic and linoleic acid.
