Best Answer

Peanut butter is a homogeneous suspension of peanut particles in an oil. More of a sludge or paste than a solvent/solute system. There are some dissolved flavour compounds in the oil (oil=solvent) and probably some salts or sugar dissolved in the water present in the nut particles (water=solvent)

Aside: The oil in peanut butter is often not peanut oil. Peanut oil is a valuable side product and is stripped away and replaced with cheaper vegetable oils

Is cocoa butter a solute?

no, its a compound ANS2: It could be a solute or it could be a solvent. You will need to determine if it is being dissolved (solute) into something or is having something dissolved into it (solvent). The rule is: that which is in greater concentration is the solvent. If it is a 50:50 mixture there is no need to fuss about the distinction.
