Abstract: A trans free hard palm oil fraction, a trans free non hydrogenated hard structural fat and a fat blend using the trans free non hydrogenated hard structural fat and liquid oils suitable for the manufacture of low SAFA (Saturated Fatty Acid) high poly/mono unsaturated margarine and spreads, wherein the trans free non hydrogenated hard structural fat is made from a selectively fractionated non-hydrogenated high melting palm oil fraction which is interesterified with dry fractionated non-hydrogenated lauric fat, such as a palm kernel oil or its fractions, the resultant interesterified fat is obtained with high yield ratios that can be economically and commercially used as trans free non hydrogenated hard structural fat for the aforesaid manufacture.
