Belém Cupuacu Butter
Wild harvested butters can vary from batch to batch. This happens because depending on the region it is harvested, weather; dry seasons or flood seasons, and time of drying.
If it rains more the fruit will be bigger and the seeds will be bigger. A batch can vary from the same producer, using the same equipment and techniques due to the ever changing environment. This does not affect the quality of the butter, But offers a beautifully unique ability to experience something fresh and natural in different variations.
Drying times can change the appearance and scent of butters. The drier the seed the more fragrant and darker the butter will be.
