Abstract
Abstract The invention provides a fat product which notwithstanding a substantially high content of palm oil or palm oil derivates is suitable for preparing emulsion food spreads, e.g. margarine of acceptable hardness values. The fat product contains both co-randomized and non-randomized constituents derived from palm oil or provide 12-25% of SUS triglycerides and a weight ratio of SUS:SSU triglycerides within the range of 0.5 to 2.5.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
110 words
Fat product containing 50-75% of palm-based fats selected from the group consisting of hydrogenated and unhydrogenated palm oil and solid and liquid fat fractions thereof, 20-90% of said palm-based fats being co-randomised with the balance of fats containing at least 80% of fatty acids with a chain length of 18 carbon atoms or more to provide at least 50% of co-randomised triglycerides in said fat product, the balance of the palm-based fats being non-randomised, said fat product containing 15-25% of 1,3-disaturated, -2-mono-unsaturated triglycerides, the weight ratio between 1,3-disaturated,-2-mono-unsaturated and 1,2-disaturated,-3-mono-unsaturated triglycerides being within the range of 1.8 to 1.5, the saturated acid residues of forementioned triglycerides having 8-24 carbon atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
