Happy Monday, all! Quick question for you regarding body butter.

I'm looking to make a body butter that uses full avocado butter. What I do NOT want is for that body butter to melt when I ship it to my mom in Florida. I'm not so worried about it right *now*, in mid-January, but July would be a different story.

If I have 16 oz. of avocado butter, would it be a viable alternative to reduce that to about 14 oz., and make up the remaining 2 oz. with deodorized cocoa butter to add a hardening effect, and thereby (hopefully), modifying the melt point?

Thank you so much! Hope you're all having a great night!

You can try it. I live in hot Palm Springs where any butter melts into a puddle in the triple digit heat.
