Abstract

Described herein is a fat composition including from 18.0%-45.0% by weight of lauric acid (C12:0); from 5.0%-20.0% by weight of palmitic acid (C16:0); from 4.0%-18.0% by weight of stearic acid (C18:0); a weight ratio of lauric acid (C12:0) to stearic acid (C18:0) from 2.0-4.5; and a weight ratio of lauric acid (C12:0) to palmitic acid (C16:0) from 1.5-5.0; the percentages of acid referring to acids bound as acyl groups in glycerides in the fat composition and being based on the total weight of C8 to C24 fatty acids; and from 5.0%-25.0% by weight of total CN32 triglycerides, CN34 triglycerides and CN36 triglycerides; from 10.0%-45.0% by weight of total CN44 triglycerides, CN46 triglycerides and CN48 triglycerides; and from 2.0%-12.0% by weight of total CN50 triglycerides and CN52 triglycerides; based on total triglycerides present in the composition.
