Absolutely love your channel, and Cale you did an awesome job 👏😍…I’m trying to persuade my other half to help me build up my soap business in Pembrokeshire, west Wales, UK. I’m just starting to formulate my own body butter. Tried the hemp seed oil and it’s gorgeous on the skin…I love the smell too! As a general guide what would say is a good ratio of hard to soft oils if using mostly Shea? I’ve seen so many recipes varying from 50/50 to 75/25..just want a starting guide 😉. Btw…Cale, good to see you making, keep it up and I’ll keep showing my other half the videos 🤣🥰🙏🏻

I saw when using the mixing bowl that it was a much longer process. I’m sure that you’ve tried other methods, but when I make my own I use my hands to first mix and break down like I am making tortillas, then I use a hand mixer to whip it., then in smaller portions I’ll use a tiny battery whipping tool. But yours looks very good. Great product, and I’m sure that it smells amazing!

[@celesteelijah2515]

Graininess in Shea butter will probably happen no matter what if the butter when in transit goes from one type of weather/claimant (hot to cold vice versa) changes. The graininess doesn't take away any of the benefits of the Shea butter. Yes, melting slowly helps. I have experienced the graininess when blending Shea in a recipe at room temperature....it still melts when coming in contact with the skin.🤩

[@sandywest4299]

[@IvoryS2012]

Hi thanks for the video, the information and showing how you do all this. Can I ask where you get the labels from?

[@astarieapothecary]

Thanks so much for sharing question do you all ever make your body butter base ahead of time and leave it in the fridge until you are ready to whip it? Or even take it out of the fridge but just leave it at room temperature till it’s ready to be whipped?

[@sandyolson3564]

Love your videos! One thing that will help you fill your jars without having to worry about having product on the rim is a canning funnel. They are cheep and it works great!

[@calezimmerman2435]

Good idea! I’ve always loathed cleaning funnels and piping equipment so the spoon/spatula combo is just a preference!

[@virginiameleski5382]

Use the mixer bowl to melt the butters. It goes right into the fridge and to the mixer when ready.

[@RonnyandBrettany]

How long do you think you mixed on the kitchen aid mixer? I have the same mixer and my body butter seemed clumpy when I tried to use it? I ended up using my hand mixer as I was worried about whipping it to long... Can you over whip your body butters? Love watching you guys!💕

[@artisticsoapdesigns]

Amazing! I make body butter very similar to yours. May I suggest not allowing it ro get completely solid before whipping. I usually start whipping when it’s 80 percent solid but still has s liquid texture. It fluffs up really nice. Also, have you considered piping it in the jar instead of spooning it in? Not as messy. ❤️ Awesome video!

[@calezimmerman2435]

Haha Jerika has suggested that and we have a piper...I guess I’m a creature of habit! Thanks for watching 😁

[@girlonterrace880]

I am so sad today, tried body butter by my hard work went in vein..my measurements were 3/4 of shea butter and 1/4 mix of coconut, jojoba and almond oil...and when it cooled i whipped but it did not incorporate air and was semi liquid..i added essential oil and arrowroot powder still nothing happened..now i hv to use the whole batch.. Plz someone send me measurements

Thanks for sharing the video of how to make creamy body butter. I have seen on other KZbin videos making body butters use a zip lock bag to squeeze into jars. Fill the bag up and snip off at one end at the bottom in a wedge and then make sure top is sealed up then squeeze carefully into a jar in a circular motion to get it in there. Stop at times to tap jar on table to not have spaces in between the butter so it will look nice in the jar. I tried it and it works.

Hey JZ & Cale! Still here and still a fan!!

[@blundo201983]

Thankyou for this. I really appreciate it. And i really appreciate you letting us know where you get your essential oils from. I once asked this girl who has a shop on Etsy where she purchases her fragrance oils from. She told me that she doesn’t give out her sources. She said that she is competing with big name companies. Which i understand to an extent. But it’s sad how you can support someone’s business over and over and they won’t do the same for you.

[@janetmccoy7945]

When I first started thinking about going into business I consulted a professional for guidance. The first piece of advice I was given “Never share your sources”. I questioned, Never? He emphasized NEVER.

[@rhondam883]

The body butter does not have to completely freeze. Everything works out much better if you just let it barely begin to solidify then start whipping. Same result, less trouble. Try it!

I'm dreading making batches of body butter 😭 once its all done Ill be relieved

[@lip-skisnaturals9250]

Body Butters are tricky. Perhaps to do them well is like making a French Omelet. I do a special recipe for summer and a special recipe for winter. And yes, these butters will melt in the summer heat. Coconut oil melts at 76 degrees F. and here in the Minnesota north we had crazy 85 degree F plus temps. this summer. We're not used to that. Shea Butter is temperature finicky and I tend to baby Shea Butter. I think I sing to it to keep it calm. Ha Ha It does get grainy, if it is shocked by being melted at a hot temp. or even cooled to fast. Something that does help is to make sure Shea Butter is incorporated well with the other butters and oils in recipe. Your end product looks airy and fluffy, like whipped cream. I purchased a Legrand Filling Machine, and it is so easy to use. Fills the jars without the messy tops and sides. it's easy to clean and there isn't much waste. Love It.
