THE INNOVATION

Cocoa butter is instrumental in the formulation of a good quality moisturising cream. The difference lies in its non-oily, shiny, and easy to spread properties which gives skin a lustrous and velvety feel. Cocoa butter fulfills the fundamental needs of a moisturising cream, as water contained in a cream is usually lost by evaporation during and after application. Cocoa butter, when applied directly, retains a high proportion of normal skin moisture, making it a highly marketable product.

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES

Skincare preparat ions show h igh average annual growth ra te (5%) espec ia l ly in reg ions wi th h igh GDP, and

publ ic in terest in cosmet ic products formulated f rom natura l raw mater ia ls is increas ing.

I t is therefore o f no d i f f icu l ty to se l l 2 ,500 un i ts o f cocoa but ter mois tur is ing cream month ly in Malays ia . As

such, investments in cocoa but ter mois tur is ing cream wi l l generate a pre- tax pro f i t o f RM2,600 per month or

26% return ra te year ly by tak ing a l l the equipment invested to the scrap va lue a f ter 10 years .

Benefits of antioxidant chocolate: •  Polyphenols as antioxidants scavenge free radicals that

cause cellular damage. Free radicals can damage DNA, RNA and protein, which contributes to the physiology of ageing.

•  Polyphenols are considered to contribute to the prevention of various degenerative diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, stroke and heart disease.

•  Polyphenols lower low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol

•  Dietary polyphenols seem to exert positive effects on anxiety and depression, possibly in part via regulation of serotonin-antidepresant
