Organic Shea Butter from Côte d’Ivoire: Modern

  • What is a mechanical extraction press?
  • The mechanical extraction press principle involves separating the oil, water, and shea nut cake from pre-prepared water–paste emulsion shown in Fig. 5. The extraction machine encompasses a movable unit driven by a motor/engine. The separated entities (oil, water, and cake) occur in layers and according to their mass.
  • Where are shea nuts produced in Burkina Faso?
  • The Sissili and Ziro provinces are the most important production centres. Further, shea nuts are the country’s third most important export after cotton and livestock. Since both shea nuts and shea butter are exported in huge quantities from Burkina Faso, their quality is extremely important.
  • How is shea butter made?
  • The traditional process of shea butter production begins with the collection of ripe fallen fruits from the trees. Obtention of nuts, treatment of nuts to obtain kernels, production of paste from kernels, and extraction of oil or emulsion from paste are diverse, depending on the region, the ethnic group, even sometimes on the producer’s know-how.
  • How are shea nuts processed?
  • Subsequently, the nuts are processed by boiling, roasting, or sun-drying. Boiling in water prevents the shea seeds from germinating and prevents hydrolytic degradation of the extracted shea butter. The boiled shea nuts are sun-dried, and then the dried shea nuts are cracked to obtain the kernels.
