1. A coating composition having an acetoglyceride fat ingredient comprising a mixture of(a) about 70% to about 95% of a diacetin fat comprising triglycerides bearing two acetic acid residues and one long, saturated C16 to C22 fatty acid residue per molecule;

  • and(b) about 5% to about 30% of a crystal-modifying fat comprising triglycerides bearing one short C2 to C4 acid residue and two long, saturated C16 to C24 fatty acid residues per molecule added to the diacetin fat in amounts effective to impart snap to the composition so that the composition undergoes brittle fracture rather than deforming under an applied load.
