  1. I am already signed up with my email. How do I get the label info?

    1. Brenda,
      Look for it in your email. Thanks!

  2. Love this. So much better for me than what are in stores. Thank you!

  3. Is there a way to substitute the coconut oil in this recipe? My mom is allergic to coconut and I’d still like to make some for her.

    1. What about almond oil? I have never tried it so I am not sure how it will turn out. Wish I could tell you for sure. I have only used the coconut oil.

  4. Would it be possible to use all cocoa butter instead of half shea and half cocoa?

    1. Hey Melanie. You could try that. I have not made it that way so I am unsure how it would turn out.
