Did you know that? Derived from the fleshy pulp of the avocado fruit rather than seeds or nuts, avocado oil stands out as a key source for oil production due to its relatively high oil content. Encased in small droplets within the cells of the avocado pulp, this oil is prized for its mild flavour, rich nutritional profile, and versatile applications in both culinary and skincare products.
