Guest guest Posted April 6, 2007 Report Posted April 6, 2007 Hi Zentub, I think I should elaborate. Copha is solidified Coconut Oil. It is -- NOT-- Fractionated Coconut Oil. FCO is totally different. Let me know if you need info on FCO?...OK? (((Hugs))) Halina in Australia Halina's Heavenly Creations " Do what you can, for who you can, with what you have, and where you are.
