Hard Mono Diglycerides

Hard mono- and diglycerides are high-melting flake or bead grades from saturated fats, favoured in bread shortenings, peanut butter stabilisation, and systems that need structure at ambient temperature. They set firmer crystal networks and handle cleanly in dry or warm-melt dosing without sticky paste mess. Melt completely into the fat phase; incomplete melt leaves white specks and weak emulsification. Flavour must stay neutral. Store cool so beads do not cake into a fused block in hot warehouses.
