Abstract

The invention concerns triglyceride compositions of the H.sub.2 M-type (H=saturated fatty acids C.sub.16 -C.sub.24 ; M=saturated fatty acids C.sub.10 -C.sub.14), wherein at least 30% H.sub.2 M is present, while the weight ratio of the two isomers HHM:HMH is more than 3.0. Application of these fats, e.g. as blends with fats high in SUS and/or fats high in (U.sub.2 S+U.sub.3) in chocolate compositions results in improved bloom behavior (S=saturated fatty acid C.sub.16 -C.sub.22 ; U- unsaturated fatty acid .gtoreq.C.sub.18).
