What is Tallow?

Tallow is at the heart of everything we do at Summer Solace.

As the pioneer in Regenerative Tallow® and the Slow Body Care Movement®, we source beef suet fat, a nutritious animal fat derived from the suet naturally surrounding the loins and kidneys of cattle.

Though often discarded today, tallow has historically been used in a myriad of culinary and cosmetic applications when saved from the waste stream. It has been a vital resource among pastoral communities throughout much of human history.

At Summer Solace, we craft all of our tallow in-house using slow, soft, traditional dry-rendering methods, starting with suet (we never use trim fat!) from healthy animals raised for meat at Stemple Creek Ranch. These animals spend their lives grazing on regenerative Northern California pasturelands.

The SST Way

At Summer Solace, we craft our tallow in-house using slow, traditional dry-rendering methods. We source only pure suet, never trim fat, from Stemple Creek Ranch, where animals are pasture-raised on regenerative Northern California lands.

This dedication to ethical sourcing and time-honored techniques ensures our tallow remains rich in vitamins, essential fatty acids, and healing nutrients that deeply nourish and restore the skin.

Rooted in sustainability and craftsmanship, we transform this ancestral ingredient into luxurious, restorative skincare. Experience the difference of skincare that is crafted with care, steeped in tradition, and designed to heal and nourish like no other.
