Abstract
A pseudo-steady state fractionation of a polymorhic fat, resulting in a product which is in a kinetically stable crystal form is performed in a way that a .sigma.-value is maintained below 0.5, wherein ##EQU1## S.sub.c being: the percentage solids in crystalliser at crystallisation temperature S.sub.E being: the percentage solids after stabilisation for 48 hrs at exit temperature of crystalliser.
