Oil: The most widely preferred type of key ingredient in shortenings 

The oil segment is estimated to be the largest share in the Shortenings Market, in terms of value, in 2017. The vegetable oils such as palm oil, soybean oil, canola oil, and olive oil are used in the production of shortenings. Palm oil is the most widely preferred key ingredient in shortenings, as it is economical, compared to butter.

Consumer awareness has created a new market for healthy products and natural ingredients derived from palm oil such as interesterified shortening and shortening produced from healthy rice bran oil.
