Can I use palm kernel oil for cooking?

Yes. Palm kernel oil has a high smoke point and mild, neutral flavour, making it excellent for high-heat frying and everyday cooking. It's widely used in Ghana for domestic cooking and commercial food processing.

Is palm kernel oil the same as palm oil?

No. Palm oil is pressed from the fleshy orange fruit surrounding the kernel — it's deep red and rich in beta-carotene. Palm kernel oil is pressed from the hard white kernel inside — it's lighter in colour, milder in flavour, and higher in saturated fat.

Can palm kernel oil be used for soap-making?

Yes — palm kernel oil is a classic soap-making base that produces a hard bar with excellent lather. We stock it in 25 L bulk for artisanal soap producers.
