Our Stearin is available in Shea, Sal & Mango bases.

Stearin, derived from triglycerides of stearic acid, is an odorless, white powder. The term “stearin” refers to the solid component of oil or fat made by partial purification of fats through wet fractionation, separating stearin-rich material with a higher melting point from the liquid.

Applications:

The use of stearin as an ingredient serves as a fat source in specific analogues of animal-based products, acting as a substitute for animal fats and vegetable oils in certain foods. Shea Stearin is mainly used as an additive to blend with Hard Palm Mid Fraction to create Cocoa Butter Equivalents (CBE).

Benefits:

Stearin offers versatile benefits as a key ingredient in plant-based foods. Serving as a source of healthy fats, it enhances the texture in meat and dairy analogues, acting as a functional replacement for animal fats and vegetable oils. Its versatility extends to various products, including burgers, sausages, dairy alternatives, confectionery, and spreads.

With an odorless, white powder form, shea stearin seamlessly integrates into different applications without compromising flavors or colors. Its wet fractionation potential allows for flexible product formulation, making shea stearin a valuable addition to the development of plant-based alternatives.
