Palm Oil in Bakery

Palm oil is used as a minor ingredient in bread manufacturing and in bakery. The addition of about 2% to the dough during mixing keeps the loaf soft. Bread made with shortening that consists of palm oil has a better texture and longer shelf life. Shortening made from palm oil is also preferred over lard, since it is more bland and will not interfere with the taste of the product.
