Tailored betaprime stable triglyceride hardstock

摘要

A stable beta-prime tailored triglyceride hardstock is disclosed which exhibits superior beta-prime stability and yields improved texture, stability, oil retention, and/or flavor display when incorporated into various food products. The beta-prime stable hardstock of the present invention comprises: a) from about 45% to about 98% of 2-Stearoyldipalmitin (PSP) triglycerides; b) from about 2% to about 55%, of 2-Palmitoyldistearin (PSS) triglycerides; c) less than about 7% of tripalmitin (PPP) triglycerides; d) less than about 7% of tristearin (SSS) triglycerides; e) less than about 3% of diglycerides; f) less than about 10% of total PPP plus SSS triglycerides; and g) less than about 10% of the fatty acids of the glycerides being unsaturated.
