Lil Better Butter Return Giveaway

Tropical Traditions Coconut Oil

I promised in exchange for the generous 32 ounce jar I was given by Tropical Traditions I would write my impressions of their products effect on my product. All customer feedback has been positive but notably a regular customer noticed the change and sent the following tweet:

HI! Did you change something in the vanilla butter? Its even more awesome, more vanilla scent, smoother. I love it!!

So their was a notable change in texture, I changed my method of scent that was noticed as well.

Thank you TT, I may be forced to continue using your product. :)

Coconut Oils

I was recently given an opportunity to use a new brand of coconut oil in the production of Lil Better Butter.( The product pictured above.) This will be the fourth coconut oil I have tried. They all performed well but I thought I would give a rundown for those interested.



#1 LouAna
Pros:
-low cost
-available at grocery stores
-no coconut scent

Cons:
-refined
-no coconut scent

16 ounces for $8.00 ( listed on Amazon.com, I know I paid less @ Wal-Mart)

#2 365 Organic Coconut Oil
Pros:
-available at Whole Foods and health food stores
-minimal coconut scent

14 ounces for $7.00

Cons:
-pricey
-glass jar



#3 Wholesale Coconut Oil from Shea-n-More
Pros:
-cost effective
-plastic container

Cons:
-no frills packaging
-variable quality

16 ounces for $7.50

So far the Tropical Traditions oil compares most closely to the 365 oil.It costs $19.95 plus shipping for 16 ounces. I do not use coconut oil straight so I will review the TT based on its effect on Lil Better Butter.
