Abstract
A cacao butter substitute comprising a triglyceride composition wherein the saturated fatty acid radicals comprise substantially palmitic acid radical, stearic acid radical and arachidic acid radical and the molar proportion of the arachidic acid radical to the total saturated fatty acid radicals is 4 to 15 molar % and that of the palmitic acid radicals is 10 to 65 molar % and that of the stearic acid radicals is 20 to 86 molar %; the unsaturated fatty acid radicals comprise substantially oleic acid radical and linoleic acid radical and the molar proportion of linoleic acid radical to the total unsaturated fatty acid radicals is less than 20 molar %; and the proportions of the glycerides are as follows, based on the total triglyceride components: 1 to 5 molar % of trisaturated triglycerides, 50 to 80 molar % of .beta.-unsaturated-.alpha.,.alpha.'-disaturated triglycerides, less than 5 molar % of .alpha.- or .alpha.'-unsaturated-disaturated triglycerides, 15 to 50 molar % .alpha.- or .alpha.'-saturated-diunsaturated triglycerides, less than 5 molar % .beta.-saturated-diunsaturated triglycerides and less than 6 molar % triunsaturated triglycerides.
