RBD Palm Kernel Olein

Brief overview

Palm Kernel Olein is a fully refined, bleached, and deodorized vegetable oil. It is a lauric-based liquid coating that solidifies quickly on ice cream during dipping. Its high melting point and steep melting profile contribute to non-brittle coatings that do not break when ice cream is eaten. It has an iodine value of 16.2-19.2 and it can be hydrogenated to produce a variety of products of different iodine values.
