The present invention relates to a process for the production of a fat composition for confectionery or baking applications. According to this process, a starting fat composition containing palm oil or a palm oil fraction and having the following composition: (1) a glyceride composition with - S2U content between 47 and 75 wt. %, - SU2+U3 content < 40wt. %, - S3 content between 1 and 15 wt. %, - a diglyceride content of 3 to 12 wt. %, the glyceride contents being expressed as wt. % with respect to the total amount of di- and triglycerides in which S means a saturated fatty acid with A hydrocarbon chain length of 14-24 carbon atoms and U means unsaturated fatty acid with a hydrocarbon chain length of 14-24 carbon atoms and (2) a total content of unsaturated fatty acids of less than 55 wt. %, preferably less than 50 wt. %, more preferably less than 48 wt. %, is subjected to a catalytic hydrogenation so as to obtain a first fat with a trans fatty acid content <15 wt. %, preferably <10 wt. %, most preferably <5 wt. % and an increase of C18-0 of less than 1 wt. %, preferably less than 0.7 wt. %, more preferably less than 0.4 wt. %. This first fat is incorporated in the fat composition. |
