SHEA BUTTER​

ORIGINS

The shea tree lives two to three centuries. It can reach a height of about fifteen meters and the diameter of its trunk is over one meter. It blooms from June to July. The shea tree will produce its first fruits when it reaches adulthood around 25 – 30 years old. The fruits of the shea tree fall to the ground when they are ripe. Each fruit contains a nut with a white kernel, from which the fat is extracted which is the shea butter. The tree will be able to produce 20 kg of fruits, that is to say 6 kg of dry almonds which will allow to obtain 2 kg of shea butter.
