The Truth About Cold-Pressed Oils: Why Avocado, Coconut & Palm Oil Are Worth the Hype

Not all oils are created equal.

In a market flooded with refined, chemically extracted, and blended oils, cold-pressed plant oils stand out for their purity, nutrition, and performance. At the forefront? Avocado oil, coconut oil, and red palm oil — especially when sourced from Cameroon’s fertile farms.

But what makes cold-pressed so special?

️ What Does “Cold-Pressed” Really Mean?

Cold-pressed oil is extracted without heat or chemical solvents, preserving vital nutrients, flavor, and aroma. Unlike hexane-extracted oils, which strip away natural compounds, cold-pressing retains:

  • Antioxidants (like Vitamin E and beta-carotene)
  • Healthy fats (monounsaturated and medium-chain triglycerides)
  • Natural color and scent

This means better taste, better health benefits, and better value — for chefs, formulators, and consumers alike.

🥑 Avocado Oil: The High-Heat Hero

With a smoke point of up to 500°F, Cameroonian avocado oil is ideal for frying, roasting, and sautéing — without breaking down into harmful compounds.

Its high monounsaturated fat content supports heart health, while its mild, buttery flavor enhances everything from salads to skincare.

We cold-press our avocado oil within hours of harvest, ensuring maximum nutrient retention and shelf stability.

🥥 Coconut Oil: Nature’s Multi-Tool

Our virgin coconut oil from Cameroon’s coast is extracted within 2 hours of opening the nut — locking in lauric acid, a powerful antimicrobial compound.

Used in cooking, haircare, and even oral health (oil pulling), it’s a favorite among clean-label brands for its versatility and purity.

🌴 Red Palm Oil: The Forgotten Superfood

Often misunderstood, unrefined red palm oil is one of the richest natural sources of beta-carotene (pro-Vitamin A) and tocotrienols, a potent form of Vitamin E.

Grown in Cameroon’s biodiverse groves — not deforested plantations — our palm oil is sustainably harvested and mechanically pressed, preserving its deep red hue and nutritional power.


Final Thought 
When you choose cold-pressed, you’re not just buying oil. You’re choosing integrity over convenience, nutrition over noise.
