Turkish Mocha Triple Butter – Body Butter

How to make triple butter Turkish Mocha Body Butter

This Turkish Mocha body butter is super luxurious. I love all things coffee so this one is of course another one of my favorites to make and to have at home. What is more luxurious than a combination of three great moisturizing butters with great skin benefits? To make this Turkish Mocha body butter I used coffee butter, shea butter, and mango butter. All these butters are great for the skin with lots of fantastic properties. With this body butter, a little goes a long way because of the decadence of the combined triple butters. The coffee butter and the Turkish Mocha fragrance can be purchased at any place that sells soap-making products. My favorites however are from Brambleberry.com in Bellingham, Washington, US.

Body butters are great for the fall and winter seasons when the air is so dry and can dry the skin. However, you can use it daily after a shower or at any time actually. A great body butter will impart some moisture to the skin and give a beautiful fragrance.

Making body butter is not too complicated but it does require some patience in order to whip the butter to the right consistency. Follow the steps below and you will have a fantastic great product.

Step by step making of Turkish Mocha body butter

Ingredients and materials:

• 4 oz coffee butter (I purchase mine from brambleberry.com)
• 2 oz shea butter
• 2 oz mango butter
• 1/2 oz jojoba oil
• 2 tsp arrowroot powder
• 2 ml using a dropper of Turkish Mocha fragrance oil (also from brambleberry.com)
• Cappuccino color mica
• plastic bail jars

First, place the coffee butter in a bowl, and using a hand mixer whip the butter for a few minutes so that the coffee butter starts to cream.

Melt the mango butter and the shea butter for 15 to 20 seconds to make sure they can be incorporated fully into the coffee butter. Allow the butters to cool before mixing with the coffee butter.

Once the butters are all mixed in continue to whip the butters together for a few minutes. The butters will start to incorporate some air and it will start to grow in volume. Make sure you use a large enough bowl to account for this expansion.

Add the arrowroot powder, the jojoba oil, and the Turkish Mocha fragrance and continue to whip for another 7 to 10 minutes.

Split a quarter of the body butter and mix in the Cappuccino color mica.

Place the cappuccino color butter on the inside surface of a piping bag. Then add the rest of the butter inside the piping bag. Transfer the Turkish Mocha body butter into the bail jars. This piping technique will give an effect in which the ends of the piped body butter will have a darker color and a lighter cream color on the inside. This is a very cool aesthetic effect, I absolutely recommend using this technique and love how the body butter turned out.

Keep in an airtight container and use as often as needed.

This Turkish Mocha body butter feels wonderful on the skin. I like that it does not feel greasy at all. The arrowroot powder is the key ingredient that ensures it is smooth on the skin and not greasy at all. With this recipe and most made with butters, a little goes a long way but don’t hesitate to splurge if you like!
