fats and oil

We use different types of fats and oils in the preparation of our KINDER® recipes. 

< >

For each product, we balance the fats naturally present in our ingredients, like milk, cocoa and hazelnuts, and the ones that we add.

We mainly use vegetable fats, such as oils and cocoa butter, but also anhydrous milkfat.
We do not use hydrogenated fats in any of our recipes.

We use different types of vegetable oils across our treats:

Coconut oil

is used in KINDER BUENO.

Sustainable palm oil

is used to give our treats their smooth and creamy texture and to ensure that their texture and flavour stay constant over time.
Our palm oil is sourced from different certified plantations in Malaysia, Indonesia and South America and is 100% RSPO certified sustainable, which means that it is kept separate from ordinary palm oil throughout the entire supply chain. Through this system, 98% of our palm oil can be traced back to the mills to ensure that it does not come from plantations subject to deforestation.

Shea butter

obtained from shea tree nuts, a wild plant from west Africa, and is used to enhance the taste and consistency in products like KINDER® JOY.
