• no-temper type hard butter There are two types of no-temper type hard butter: lauric acid type and trans fatty acid type. Advantages of the lauric acid type no temper type hard butter include that the mouth melts well and that the drying at the time of solidification is quick. On the other hand, there is a problem that the flavor is liable to deteriorate due to hydrolysis or the like, and the compatibility with cocoa butter is extremely low.
