Malaysian Palm Oil for Diverse Food Applications

Malaysian palm oil is a highly versatile vegetable oil used throughout modern food manufacturing. Through physical fractionation, palm oil can be separated into Palm Olein, Palm Stearin and additional fractions with different melting and solid-fat characteristics. This flexibility enables manufacturers to develop oils and fats for frying, bakery, spreads, confectionery and other food applications.

Palm Olein provides good oxidative stability for commercial and industrial frying, while Palm Oil and Palm Stearin offer useful semi-solid characteristics for margarines, shortenings and bakery fats. Palm-based ingredients can contribute structure, aeration, texture and processing performance in breads, cakes, biscuits and pastries.
