Looking for bulk quantities. I am thinking of a price around $7.00 per pound would be good.

Some vendors just put food color in the regular shea butter and sell it for more.

G,they had downtown prices.10 bucks a pound.I met another brother who just sold it fresh by container.Prices starting at 5-35.

He will also be at the fest...booth 59.

Maybe you will get a better deal out there at the fest.
