Cacao Butter for Body and Soul
A Ritual of Presence and Natural Care
When we think of cacao, we often imagine a warm drink, a sweet treat, or a sacred ceremony. But there is a quieter treasure hidden in this plant: its butter.
Cacao butter isn’t only something to eat. It’s something to feel. It’s the kind of medicine you spread on your skin with the same intention as when you drink it: to care, to return to your body, to remember who you are.
Extracted from the fatty part of the cacao bean, this butter is unrefined, unprocessed, and alive. Our cacao butter is ceremonial — meaning it keeps its original properties, its ancestral essence, and its naturally rich texture.
When applied to the skin, it becomes a ritual. It melts in your hands and transforms into a balm that soothes, nourishes, and regenerates. No perfumes, no additives. Just the quiet scent of real cacao.
You can use it daily on dry areas, on your lips, as a face cream, or after a shower. Some people apply it before meditation, others as a sacred pause at the end of the day.
At Sumay, we offer cacao butter in solid blocks, just like it has been done traditionally — pure and simple, directly from communities in Peru and Ecuador who know and respect this sacred plant.
Because cacao butter is not just cosmetic. It is presence. It is connection. It is a reminder that we can care for ourselves with what is most pure, natural, and essential.
