Copha
Copha, a registered trademark of Peerless, is a form of vegetable fat shortening made from hydrogenated coconut oil. It is 100% fat, at least 98% of which is saturated. It also contains soybean lecithin. It is popular in Australia where it is used in many foods for children, such as rocky road, and chocolate crackles, which are made from Rice Bubbles, copha and cocoa powder.
Copha is produced only in Australia, but there are many suppliers of hydrogenated coconut fat in various forms worldwide. It is a necessary ingredient in traditional Australian sweets such as chocolate crackles and white Christmas, and a "chocolate coating" on baked goods that amounts to a rather waxy form of compound chocolate. Concern about the health hazards of hydrogenated fats is likely to be a significant contribution to the declining popularity of Copha-based confectionery.〔H. K. Chopra et al.

In New Zealand, it is marketed as ''Kremelta''. Known in Europe as coconut fat, it is available either in its pure form, or in solid form with lecithin added as an emulsifier. In France it is marketed as ''Végétaline'' and in Germany it is marketed as ''Palmin''. In the United States it is not easily available.
Copha is further an EU registered trademark for the Danish watch company (Copha ). Copha produce watches for the urban lifestyle and is based in Copenhagen. The Copha name is an abbreviation of Copenhagen.
