Which Grocery Store Aisle Is Cacao Butter In?
If you’re in a chain supermarket, you can probably skip right to the natural food aisle for cacao butter (or cocoa butter). It may be with the baking goods in the shelf-stable area or possibly in a cooler.
The second place to check is the baking aisle. If there’s an organic or natural section of this aisle, look there first.
Next, check the aisle with the oils. The cacao butter may be by coconut oil or with specialty oils.
Last but not least, look in the supplement aisle. Since cacao butter is often considered a superfood, many grocery stores will place it with other “superfoods” like açaí powder and green powder blends.
