The invention discloses a method for preparing cocoa butter equivalent by the aid of 28-degree
palm oil medium
fractionation substances (POMF). The method includes steps of weighing a certain
mass of the 28-degree
palm oil medium
fractionation substances (POMF) and a certain volume of
acetone and mixing the 28-degree
palm oil medium
fractionation substances (POMF) and the
acetone with one another according to a
mass-volume ratio of 1:4-1:6 to obtain
mixed solution; (2), heating the
mixed solution until the temperature of the
mixed solution reaches 40+ / -1 DEG C and completely dissolving the 28-degree palm oil medium fractionation substances (POMF) in the
acetone to obtain clear transparent mixed solution; (3), cooling the clear transparent mixed solution until the temperature of the clear transparent mixed solution reaches 8.0-9.0 DEG C and crystallizing the clear transparent mixed solution to obtain crystallized solution; (4), carrying out vacuum
filtration on the crystallized solution and collecting
solid fat with a small quantity of acetone; (5), carrying out reduced-pressure
distillation on the collected
solid fat and removing the acetone to obtain the cocoa butter equivalent (CBE). The method has the advantages that processes for preparing the cocoa butter equivalent are simple, and the cocoa butter equivalent (CBE) can be prepared by means of one-step
solvent fractionation; the cocoa butter equivalent (CBE) prepared by the aid of the method has melting characteristics consistent with melting characteristics of cocoa butter, accordingly, a large quantity of the cocoa butter equivalent can be added into natural cocoa butter, and the cocoa butter equivalent also can be directly used for producing diversified chocolate products (CBE).
