bugtussle Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 So now that my $80. for Kokum has gone up in smoke (mold), what hard butter could I sub in the Whipped Body Frosting recipe? Carole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara AL Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Carole,I know Cocoa Butter has the same quality as Kokum but I haven't tried it yet.I lost some money in that Co-op too and decided to order my Kokum (Ultra Refined Kokum) from the Chemistry Store that was the cheaspest I could fine it at $24 something for 3 pounds or 8.20 a pound.Barbara AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugtussle Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 I'm sorry you lost too. I have 5#s in my cart @ Chemistry Store right now; I had used it before. I have subbed the cocoa for kokum and it whipped up fine, just made the butter more greasy. I think cocoa is the only other butter with a high melt point. Ugh, but thks for the info.

Loulougirl Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 When I made it, instead of kokum, I used half cocoa, and half mango. hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBE Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Have you tried Illipe Butter? You can get it at Texas Natural Supply. Hard as a rock and kinda reminds me of Kokum. http://shop.texasnaturalsupply.ieasysite.com/productinfo.aspx?productid=ILLB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
