Abstract
Disclosed is a peanut butter stabilizer composition comprising (1) an intermediate melting fat fraction having an iodine value of from 25 to 45 and a solids content of between 80% and 95% at a temperature of from 50.degree. F. to 90.degree. F. and a solids content of less than 50% at 115.degree. F., and (2) a hydrogenated oil component comprising a triglyceride having a high proportion of C.sub.20 -C.sub.22 fatty acids and, optionally, a second hydrogenated oil, the hydrogenated oil component having an iodine value of less than 8. The use of this stabilizer improves the texture of peanut butter, increases the mouthmelt, and reduces the stickiness often caused by the use of a stabilizing component.
