In scenarios where the cosmological baryon asymmetry is generated in the decay of heavy colored Higgs triplets at the one-loop level (at least two triplets are needed), it is shown that in addition to the conventional triangle loop ({epsilon}{prime}-type effect), a new kind of diagram must be considered. This new type of diagram has its origin in the mixing of the two Higgs fields ({epsilon}-type effect). The mixing of the two Higgs fields violates {ital CP} provided they have at least two common decay channels. For small mixing angles, the new contribution can be bigger than the conventional one.
