What it is

Palm stearine oil is a solid fat fraction obtained from palm oil. It is separated from liquid palm olein through a process called fractionation, which involves controlled cooling and crystallization. This process yields a fat that is more solid at room temperature than regular palm oil.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use palm stearine oil to provide structure and texture to food products due to its solid nature. It helps create desirable mouthfeel and stability in items like frozen bread, crackers, and other baked goods.

Health notes

Palm stearine oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is high in saturated fat. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend limiting saturated fat intake to less than 10% of daily calories. JECFA and EFSA evaluate food additives, but palm stearine oil is considered a food ingredient rather than an additive requiring an acceptable daily intake (ADI).
