A method of forming an encapsulated composition with enhanced solubility and stability. A bicontinuous or Winsor Type III microemulsion is formed using an emulsifier, a solvent and a co-emulsifier. An active composition is added to the microemulsion resulting in a micellar network of the active composition within the microemulsion. The active composition can be either water-soluble or oil-soluble or both.
