Shea stearin is characterized by the presence of high amounts of symmetrical stearic-rich triacylglycerols such as 1,3-distearo-2-olein. Therefore, it is used in chocolate products as a cocoa
In addition, poor postharvest processing will result in any remaining shea butter having high free fatty acid (FFA) levels (as a result of hydrolytic breakdown product of the TAGs) and a corresponding drop in yields of the most valuable component of shea butter, the StOSt-rich stearin. 5.2.3.
