Palm stearin is the harder fraction of palm oil, containing a higher proportion of saturated fatty acids and TAGs with a higher melting point of 48–50°C.
Palm stearin consists of mostly glyceryl tripalmitate, with most of the rest of the fat content being glyceryl dipalmitate monooleate. In terms of fatty acid composition, a typical soft palm stearin might contain almost 50% palmitic acid and 35% oleic acid.

Since stearin candles are made of animal and plant materials, they are generally found to be a safe and environmentally friendly option.
