"Hi WSP! When I first receive an order of Shea, I find it less messy & easier to work with if I melt everything completely down, pour it into a large plastic storage container, and then allow it to harden back up in the container. Would love to be able to be a little lazy & skip my usual step of having to transfer everything to my crock pot first though! I'm curious... Is the bag the Shea comes in microwave safe? Thank you!!"

"What makes this shea butter high melt? How is it different from unrefined or regular refined? "

Click Here To View 3 answer(s)

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer The average melt point for the High Melt Shea butter is 104-114°F. The average melt point for the Ultra Refined Shea and the Natural Shea is 90°F. Therefore the High Melt Shea Butter has a higher melt point and will remain more solid at room temperature.

Posted By: WSP Staff | Date: September 12, 2014

Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

Melt point is affected by the density of the oils. Unrefined means the oil has been removed in its natural state (usually cold pressed/expeller pressed). Refined usually involves heat, but can vary.

Posted By: emmelou | Date: September 12, 2014

Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

I love to use the high melt point shea butter in lip balms and lotion bars. When I was using regular shea, my balms and lotion bars would get grainy really easily, especially if they got too warm in a pocket or shipping. Since I started using the high melt point shea, I have no more problems with them getting grainy anymore, the products stay nice and smooth!!

Posted By: Andrea | October 26, 2015

"It is my understanding that natural unrefined shea butter has not been heated. But when I read about shea butter that has a grainy feel to it is because it has been heated. So has the natural unrefined shea butter you sell been processed in any way that requires heat. Heat would cause the shea to lose some of its nutrients."

This seems to contradict an answer provided on 3/13/14. Please clarify. The other answer said it is melted prior to packaging.

Posted By: Jennifer | Date: December 04, 2015

Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

Staff Answer Hi Jennifer,
Thank you for your inquiry. We do not actively melt any of our butters, however based on the natural temperature the consistency does change which may result in natural melting. We apologize for the misinformation, but the 'spots' identified on the previous question are typically due to the butter melting and then cooling - again this is from the natural temperature fluctuation in our warehouse.

Staff Answer Natural Shea Butter will retain it's natural benefits and properties, including the odor. Because Shea Butter is a natural product, it may vary in color and strength of odor based on the crop. If you prefer a white product with low odor then we recommend our Shea Butter Ultra Refined: http://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/ProductDetail.aspx?CatalogID=1&GroupID=11&CategoryID=1387&ProductID=279&ProductName=Crafters+Choice%e2%84%a2+Shea+Butter+-+Ultra+Refined

The natural shea butter is a great moisturizer. I use it on my hair, face, and feet. It has somewhat a nutty smell. It is also a very light yellow color.

This shea butter has a smoky, nutty smell. It is less odorous than yellow shea, but it does have more odor than refined shea.

"Natural Shea Butter Dilemma"

COMMENTS: This was my first time making Body Butter and I decided to order the Natural Shea Butter. In opening the bag for the first time, I noticed a slightly sour smell, which was different from the nutty smell I know natural shea butter to have. I proceeded and made a batch using WSP Mango Papaya FO and it turned out beautifully! It whipped up nicely, I was able to pipe it into my jars easily, and the sour odor was gone! I made another batch a week later and the odor of the Natural Shea Butter from the bag appeared to have gotten worse. I proceeded and used another FO and hoped that the odor in this batch would disappear as it did for my first batch. No such luck! While the Natural Shea Butter in the finished product does not smell as bad as it does directly from its bag, the odor is still slightly present. I even went back and checked the first batch I made and it still smells wonderful! I really want to use the Natural Shea Butter in my Body Butter recipes, but feeling a bit down now regarding the unpleasant odor versus the natural nutty scent I was expecting.

"The real deal!"

COMMENTS: This shea butter is the real deal. It's been a while since I bought shea, and I was hesitant about buying the unprocessed because of some comments about the smell. But I wanted the unsaponifiables and great skin feel of the natural shea. This is exactly what you want in natural shea butter! It has a subtle smoky scent and a slight yellow color. Applied it straight to my hands and they still feel amazing, even after washing them a few times. Can't wait to soap with it. Winter is coming. Stock up now, folks!

"A quality butter but"

COMMENTS: This has, it's a good butter with a quality soft skin feel if used neat, but the SCENT is very...distinct. I don't like it all personally. I don't think that it's rancid, but it is a natural product and the smell is like burned sour peanut. Im still smelling it an hour later so while the product is very nice I recommend a refined or deodorized version if you have other scents in your product you don't want messed with. 2 oz. is a decent test size with a very reasonable price, the package being about the size of a flatter capri-sun though not 'full' just enough to experiment with.

"one big clump"

COMMENTS: As with all of the products we receive, this product comes packaged well for shipping so that there is no package breakage and the full product is in tact. This is definitely natural shea butter as is evidenced by the unique smell when opening. It is very thick and true to its natural form. This makes it difficult to separate but is much better to handle using gloves. The product works very well in our lip balms and salves.

	"First lotion bars "
COMMENTS: Made my first lotion bars and everyone loves them!!! I added coconut oil and beeswax. I had to do less coconut oil because it was too greasy. The shea butter overpowered the scent, but I'll try it again and see if it turns out better.

"Good quality - but a bit too naturally scented"

COMMENTS: This is good quality unrefined shea and works well in applications but it does have an unusual amount of natural scent which is not generally pleasant. I have used raw shea from many sources and this one seems to have the most scent of any I have tried to date.

"Feels cleaner."

COMMENTS: When I received package it was like a bigger bock of shae butter had been sliced or broken down, a better quality than what I was getting. It was easier to get out of bag. The other looked like it was softened then poured into large bag inserted into large reclosable bag. The Crafters Choice just looked cleaner. They both did same thing but, seemed Crafters Choice was easier to work with.

"Great Product!"

COMMENTS: I was hesitant to purchase this natural shea butter as the unrefined smell can vary greatly from different suppliers. But, this one was great! I did not notice any other scent besides the natural, normal that I am used to. This product works great in everything and I use it in a lot of my products. The price and free shipping is unbeatable and I will be purchasing from WSP from here on out.

"Smelled like fire or smoke."

COMMENTS: This didn;t work for Me at all. Actually ruined a whole batch of butter. This smelled like smoke right out the bag. I assumed it would die down in the finished product. Instead the smelled got worse. It smelled like fire burning I could sell any of the butter or use any. It sucks because I bought quite a bit of it and can't use the remainder at all.

"Natural and nice"

COMMENTS: I loved the natural shea butter due to it fit my natural products perfectly. It is super thick, creamy, and very moisturizing. I have not had any issues with it. I chose this product because it offered a natural butter without being messed with. However it is very hard though easy to melt without grittyness. It also has a very strong odor but I have been able to cover it up with essential oils and fragrance oils. I will buy it again
