Palm Oil and suitable palm-based fractions are widely used in shortening formulations because they can provide structure, firmness, plasticity and functional stability for bakery and food manufacturing applications. Depending on the selected grade and formulation, palm-based shortening can be used in cakes, biscuits, cookies, pastries, bread products, fillings and confectionery.
Non-hydrogenated palm oil is naturally free from industrially produced trans fats and can provide semi-solid functionality without partial hydrogenation. This allows suitable palm-based shortening systems to be developed for manufacturers seeking bakery fats with desirable texture and processing performance while avoiding partially hydrogenated oils.
Palm Oil for palm-based shortening, bakery fats, cakes, biscuits, pastries, confectionery and food manufacturing applications worldwide.
Palm Oil is plant-derived and naturally contains no dietary cholesterol. It can also be used in vegetarian food formulations. However, the finished product should only be described as vegetarian when all ingredients, processing aids and manufacturing conditions comply with the relevant requirements.
